[Verse 1]Before I was born, late one nightMy papa said everything's alrightThe doctor paid, mama laid downWith a semitone bouncing all aroundCause the beebop stork was about to arriveMama gave birth to the hand-jive[Verse 2]I could barely walk when I milked a cowWhen I was three I pushed a plowWhile chopping wood I moved my legsAnd they saw me dancing when I gathered eggsThe townfolk clapped, I was only fiveAnd I danced 'em all, he's born to hand-jive[Chorus 1]Oh yeah, yeah, yeah - everybodyBorn to hand-jive, babyBorn to hand-jive, baby - yeah[Bridge]How low can you go, how low can you goHow low can you go, how low can you goHigher, higher, higher and higher[Chorus 2]Now can you hand-jive, baby, oh can you hand-jive, babyOh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeahBorn to hand-jive, oh yeah
