Five O'Clock Drag
You're "hep" to what's buzzin', cousin;You're up on what's cookin' tooDon'tcha start relaxin', Jackson;Show what you can do.The Five O'clock Drag is drivin'!Just look at those cats arrivin'Around about five for jivin';Say, it's a real "hep" treat.The rhythm it blares is tricky,A rhythm that scares an "ickie";It's givin' the square a mickie,A touch of Basin StreetFirst, you start to zag,And then you zig it,And then you dig itHip! Hip! Hip!Then you start to shag, and,As you jig it,You take a hop a jump,Or a skip.Five O'clock Drag is jumpin'The drummer man's beat is thumpin';Five O'clock Drag is sumpin'That really does "all reet."The Five O'clock Drag is drivin'!Just look at those cats arrivin'Letras de cancionesAround about five for jivin';Say, it's a real "hep" treat.The rhythm it blares is tricky,A rhythm that scares an "ickie";It's givin' the square a mickie,A touch of Basin StreetFirst, you start to zag,And then you zig it,And then you dig itHip! Hip! Hip!Then you start to shag, and,As you jig it,You take a hop a jump,Or a skip.Five O'clock Drag is jumpin'The drummer man's beat is thumpin';Five O'clock Drag is sumpin'That really does "all reet."
