Mop mop, a thousand years ago |
|
Mop mop, a guy named Jungle Joe |
|
Was a drummer man in a Zulu band |
|
That made swing history |
|
Mop mop, one day the king said, "Gate |
|
Why Gate, you old reprobate |
|
I commission you, find a riff that's new |
|
Or your wig belongs to me" |
|
Joe's knees started knockin' |
|
So scared he was stiff |
|
'Til he noticed the tribe was rockin' |
|
As his knees beat out this mellow riff |
|
Mop mop, from the tropic's heat |
|
Mop mop, came this jungle beat |
|
Though Old Joe is gone, his Jive lives on |
|
And it still is making history |
|
