Willie And The Hand Jive

(album: Levon Helm - 1978)

I gonna tell you all about Way Out Willie
He had a pretty little thing named Rocking Millie
He can walk and stroll and Susie Q
And he know how to do the hand jive too

Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive
Do the crazy hand jive
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive
Do the crazy hand jive

Now, Willie and Millie got married last fall
They had a little Willie Junior and that ain't all
Well, baby Willie he's a sight to see
When he do that hand jive on TV

Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive
Do the crazy hand jive
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive
Do the crazy hand jive

Mama, Mama look at Uncle Joe
He's doing that hand jive with sister Flo
Grandma told Willie, "You'll ruin my home"
Said, "You and that hand jive have got to go"

You can hand jive, hand jive, hand jive
Do the crazy hand jive
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive
Do the crazy hand jive

Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive
Do the crazy hand jive
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive
Do the crazy hand jive
