I know a cat named Way-out Willie.
He's got a groovy little chick named Rocking' Lily.
Yeah, rock & rolling Suzie Q
Does that crazy old hand jive, too.
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive,
Do that crazy hand jive.
Mama, Mama, look at Sister Flo,
Doing that hand jive with Uncle Joe.
When I gave little sister a dime,
I said "Do that hand jive one more time."
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive,
Do that crazy hand jive.
A doctor, a lawyer and an Indian Chief,
They all dig that Diddley beat.
Way-out Willie gave them all a treat,
When he did that hand jive with his feet.
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive,
Do that crazy hand jive.
Papa told Willie, "You'll ruin my home.
You and that hand jive have got to go."
Willie told Papa, "Don't you put me down.
They're doing that hand jive all around town."
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive,
Do that crazy hand jive.
Willie and Lily got married last fall.
They had a little Willie Junior, and that ain't all.
Well, the baby got famous in his crib, you see,
When he did that hand jive on MTV.
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive,
Do that crazy hand jive.
