"Java Jive" lyrics
Johnny Mercer with The Paul Smith Trio & The Notables Lyrics
"Java Jive"
I love coffee, I love tea
I love the Java Jive and it loves me
Coffee and tea and the java and me
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup!
I love java sweet and hot
Whoops, Mister Moto, I'm a coffee pot
Shoot me the pot, and I'll pour me a shot
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup!
Oh slip me a slug from the wonderful mug
And I'll cut a rug 'til I'm snug in a jug
A slice of onion and a raw one, Draw one!
Waiter, waiter, percolator!
I love coffee, I love tea
I love the Java Jive and it loves me
Coffee and tea and the java and me
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup!
Boston beans (soy beans)
I said the little itty-bitty green bean (cabbage n' greens)
You know that I'm not keen about a bean
Unless it is a chile chile bean! (Talk it, boy!)
I love java sweet and hot
Whoops, Mister Moto, I'm a coffee pot (yeah)
You shoot me the pot, and I'll pour me a shot
A cup, a cup, a cup, 'an dat zat bootle!
Blow me a slug from that wonderful mug
And I'll cut a rug that's snug in a jug
Drop a nickel in my pot, Joe, takin' it slow
Waiter, waiter percolator
I love coffee, I love tea
I love the Java Jive an' it loves me
Coffee and tea and the java and me
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, boy!
