The Joint Is Jumpin'

They have a new expression
Along old Harlem way
It tells you when the party
Is ten times more than gay

To say that things are jumpin'
Leaves not a single doubt
Now watch all the kids stop everything
The year somebody shouts

The joint is jumpin'
It's really jumpin'
Come in cats, and grab your hats
I mean this joint is jumpin'

Piano's thumpin'
Dancers are pumpin'
Every Moe's on his toes
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 neighbour's knockin'
Cause we're all bums when the wagon comes
I mean this joint is jumpin'

Grab your pig's feet, beer and gin
There's plenty in the kitchen
What was that that just walked in?
Did you see the way he was switchin'?

Don't you mind the hour
Cause I'm in power
I got bail if you go to jail
I said this joint
I mean this joint is jumpin'
