The Joint Is Jumpin’

The Joint Is Jumpin' (蠢蠢欲動) - Fats Waller (胖子沃勒)

They have a new expression along old harlem way

That tells you when a party is ten times more than gay

To say that things are jumpin' leaves not a single doubt

That everthing is in full swing when you hear someone shout

Here 'tis

The joint is jumpin'

It's really jumpin'

Come in cats and check your hats

I mean this joint is jumpin'

The piano's thumpin'

The dancers are bumpin'

This here spot is more than hot

In fact the joint is jumpin'

Check your weapons at the door

Be sure to pay your quarter

Burn your leather on the floor

Grab anybody's daughter

The roof is rockin'

The neighbors knockin'

We're all bums when the wagon comes

I mean this joint is jumpin'

Let it be yas

Burn this joint boy yas

Oh my yas

Don't you hit that chick that's my broad

Where'd you get that stuff at

Why I'll knock you to your knees what

Put this cat out of here what

Get rid of that pistol get rid of that pistol

Yeah get rid of it yas yeah

That's what I'm talkin' about ha ha

Now it's really ready

No baby not now I can't come over there right now

Yeah let's do it

The joint is jumpin'

It's really jumpin'

Every mose is on his toes

I mean this joint is jumpin'

Uh oh no time for talkin'

This place is walkin' yes

Get your jug and cut the rug

I think the joint is jumpin'

Listen

Get your pig feet bread and gin

There's plenty in the kitchen

Who is that that just came in

Just look at the way he's switchin'

Aw mercy don't mind the hour

I'm in power I've got bail if we go to jail

I mean this joint is jumpin'

Don't give your right name no no no no
