Johnny Otis - Presenting Johnny Otis

Willie and the Hand Jive

I know a cat named Way-Out Willie
He got a cool little chick named Rockin' Billie
He can walk and stroll and Susie Q
And do that crazy hand jive too

Papa told, "Willie, you'll ruin my home
You and that hand jive have got to go"
Willie said, "Papa, don't put me down
They're doin' the hand jive all over town"

Hand jive, hand jive
Hand jive, doin' that crazy hand jive

Mama, mama, look at Uncle Joe
He's doin' that hand jive with sister Flo
Grandma gave baby sister a dime
Said, "Do that hand jive one more time"

Doctor and the lawyer and Indian chief
They all dig that crazy beat
Way Out Willie gave 'em all a treat
When he did that hand jive with his feet

Hand jive, hand jive
Hand jive, doin' that crazy hand jive
Hey-hey

Now Willie and Millie got married last fall
They had a little Willie Junior, and that ain't all
Well, baby got famous in his crib, you see
Doin' that hand jive on TV

Hand jive, hand jive
Hand jive, doin' that crazy hand jive
Hey-hey
Hey-hey
