I was bopped on the head Now I'm tall as a treetop And just to end like new I find the melody's dead 'Cause my baby likes to be-bop And I like to be-bop too! I was down on my heels So I hopped to the shoe shop "Shoe, fix up my boots like new! I gotta be on the job 'Cause my baby likes to be-bop And I like to be-bop too!" The rhythm is off the beaten track, Jack! The squares keep tryin' just to beat it back! I saw old Uncle Ned Do a dance and a flip-flop He jumped like the hep cats do! I flipped my lid when he said "My baby likes to be-bop And I like to be-bop too!" How I love to be-bop too! How I love to be-bop too! I saw old Uncle Ned Do a dance and a flip-flop He jumped like the hep cats do! I flipped my lid when he said "My baby likes to be-bop And boy And I like to be-bop too!"
