I was bopped on the head now I'm tall as a treetop
And just to end like new
I find the melody's dead 'cause my baby likes to be-bop
And I like to be-bop too
I was down on my heels so I hopped to the shoe shop
To fix up my boots like new
I gotta be on the job 'cause my baby likes to be-bop
And I like to be-bop too
The rhythm is off the beaten track, Jack
The squares keep tryin' just to beat it back
I saw old Uncle Ned do a dance and a flip-flop
He jumped like the hep cats do
I flipped my lid when he said, "My baby likes to be-bop
And I like to be-bop too"
How I love to be-bop too
How I love to be-bop too
I saw old Uncle Ned do a dance and a flip-flop
He jumped like the hep cats do
I flipped my lid when he said, "My baby likes to be-bop"
And boy
And I like to be-bop too
