If it's pleasure you're about
And you feel like stepping out
All you've got to shout is
"Let me off uptown"
If it's rhythm that you feel
Then it's nothing to conceal
All you got to spill is
"Let me off uptown"
Rib joints, juke joints, hip joints
Where could a fella go to top it?
If you want to pitch a ball
And you can't afford a hall
All you've got to call is
"Let me off uptown"
Rib joints, juke joints, hip joints
Where could a fella go to top it?
If you want to pitch a ball
And you can't afford a hall
All you've got to call is
Let me off uptown
Do-do-do-do-do-do
Shoo-ba-do-doo
Wee-de-dee-doo-da
Sha-do-do wee-de-dee-doo-da
Come on and let me off uptown
