He wears a zoot suit with a reet pleat
Drives a ?36 Cord with a rumble seat
Now he?s a, Lord, he's a jitterbug
Scare the letters off a highway sign
He drinks beer and eats beanies
Chases it down with ol' Thunderbird wine
Carries brass knuckles and a .44
Runs a loan shark business and a Mary Jane store
He?s a, he's a jitterbug; keeps movin?, don?t sit still
If the law don?t get him, some gun-totin? irate husband will
Oh, oh, oh, ooh, ooh, ooh, jitterbug, jitterbug
One day in September he stepped out of his Cord
Into the street to face a bullet spittin? Ford
Now he?s jitterbug, just a name in the news
Said, "He finally paid the price, he finally paid his dues"
Jitterbug, jitterbug, jitterbug, jitterbug
Jitterbug, jitterbug, jitterbug, jitterbug
