Swinging At The Seance Lyrics
Swingin' at the Séance - The Deep River Boys
In a house up on a rock along the countryside
At precisely twelve o'clock the spooks begin to rise
Swingin' at the seance twelve ticks
Swingin' at the seance hot licks
With the medium in trance
How that horn began to dance
Oh why do you why do you why do you
Why do you why do you why do you want to stay
Swingin' at the seance five men
Swingin' at the seance jive men
When the trumpet blasted out
All the spooks began to shout
Oh why do you why do you why do you
Why do you why do you why do you want to stay
That music came through so sweetly low-down
Yet nobody knew who was riff-riff-riffin' around
Oh swingin' at the seance black coats
Swingin' at the seance blue notes
While the trumpet could have won a cup
It's jivin' broke the seance up
And who do you think was a-riffin' away
No one else but billy may
Baba let them stay baba let them play
They all oh swingin'
Swingin' at the seance yes
Black coats yellow coats green coats blue coats
All the coats from my own
Swingin' swingin' swingin'
Swingin' at the seance yes
