The Jitter Jump Lyrics - Singles - Tampa Red

The jitter jump is a mellow thing 

It put you in the mood to swing 

To kiss and dance and everything 

The jitter jive is jumpin' 

The old and grey, the young and gay 

Are takin' chances every night and day 

Gettin' the kicks the jazzy way 

The jitter jive and jumpin' 

Everywhere in town 

You see them tuckin' around 

Weighin' the smell of sound 

And gettin' high and breakin' down 

The jitter jump it won't behave 

Make you real and make you rock and sway 

With your kicks with the hip hip way 

The jitter jive is jumpin' 

I say, the jitter jump is a mellow thing 

Put you in the mood to swing 

To kiss and dance and everything 

The jitter jive is jumpin' 

The old and grey, the young and gay 

Are takin' chances every night and day 

To get the kicks the jazzy way 

The jitter jive is jumpin' 

Everywhere in town 

You see them tuckin' around 

Weighin' the smell of sound 

Gettin' high and breakin' down 

The jitter jump it won't behave 

It make you real and make you rock and sway 

And get your kicks the hip hip way 

The jitter jive is jumpin' 

The jitter jive is jumpin'
