Cab Calloway Lyrics
"Jitterbug"

If you like to be a jitterbug,
first thing you must do is get a jug
put whisky whine and gin within and shake it all up,
and then begin
grab a cup and start to toss
you are drinkin jittersauce
dont you worry you just mug
and then you'll be a jitterbug

Hear this fat boy blowing his horn?
he's been a bug since the day he was born
his favorite jittersauce is rye
we'll drink it till the day he dies
toot your whistle and ring your bell
ol butchy wutchy time or tell
dont you worry you just mug
you'll always be a jitterbug

these four boys playin saxiphone
order jittersauce by phone
said to give your haliporniboy
i think these bugs can drink some more
they drink sauce some more tonight
never stop until theyre tired
dont you worry they just mug
theyre poor little jitterbugs

now heres old father
a wicked old man
drinks more sauce then then the other mugs can
he drinks jittersauce everymorning
thats why juttersauce was born
see him shake with his trambone
just cant leave that sauce alone
get along father you just mug
you'll always be a jitterbug

as ripman with his eyes atwinkle
we names him after rip van winkle
like rip hed sleep for 20 years
if he could get his fill of beer
rip drinks his sauce gets on the stand
soon to forget hes in the band
dont awaken him just let him mug
he'll always be a jitterbug

all bugs out,
all bugs out
(yeah man)
poor little monkey jitterbug
aw theres not a jitterbug in da band

(yeah man)

hey
swing it bugs go bugs swing it
bigfoot bugs
