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
