"Are You Hep To The Jive? (Yas, Yas)"

(Yes, yes, yes)
Are you full'a pep?
(Yes, yes, yes)
Are you hep-a hep-a?
(Yes, yes, yes)
Are you full'a step-a?

Whad'ya know, Gate?
Are you in the know
Or are you a solid bringer downer?
Listen here, Jack
Take it slow, and you can learn just what I mean

Are you hep to the jive?
(Yes, yes)
Are you hep to the jive?
(Yes, yes)
Are you hep, are you hep
Are you keepin' in step?
Are you hep to the jive?

Do you lace your boots high?
(Yes, yes)
Are you fly, are you fly?
(Yes, yes)
Do you dig, do you dig
Do you swing on a gig?
Are you hep to the jive?

Do you get in the groove?
(Yes, yes)
Does the beat make you move?
(Yes, yes)
Do you send yourself, Jack
And then trivvy on back
'Cause you know that it's smooth?

Oh, are you hep to the jive?
(Yes, yes)
Are you hep to the jive?
(Yes, yes)
Are you hep, are you hep
Are you keepin' in step?
Are you hep to the jive?

Are you hep to the jive?
(Da-doo-da, yes, yes)
Are you hep to the jive?
(Da-doo-da, yes, yes)
Are you hep, are you hep
Are you keepin' in step?
Are you hep to the jive?

Do you lace your boots high?
(Da-doo-da, yes, yes)
Are you fly, are you fly?
(Da-doo-da, yes, yes)
Are you hep, are you hep
Are you keepin' in step?
Are you hep to the jive?

Do you get in the groove?
(Yes, yes)
Does the beat make you move?
(Yes, yes)
Do you send yourself, Jack
And then trilly it back
'Cause you know that it's smooth?

Are you hep, hep, hep to the jive?
(Yes, yes)
How do you dig, dig, dig, dig the jive?
(Yes, yes)
Are you hep, are you hep
Are you really in step?
Are you hep to the jive?
