Song lyrics
I know a cat named Way-out Willie.
Got a groovy little chick named Rockin' Lily.
Yeah, rock & rolling Suzie Q
Does that crazy old hand jive, too.

Mama, Mama, look at Sister Flo,
Doing that hand jive with Uncle Joe.
Grandma gave little sister a dime,
Said "Do that hand jive one more time."

Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive,
Do that crazy hand jive.

The doctor, the lawyer and the Indian Chief,
They all dig that Diddley beat.
Way-out Willie gave them all a treat,
When he did that hand jive with his feet.

Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive,
Do that crazy hand jive.

Papa told Willie, "You'll ruin my home.
You and that hand jive have got to go."
Willie told Papa, "Don't you put me down.
They're doing that hand jive all around town."

Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive,
Do that crazy hand jive.

Willie and Lily got married last fall.
They had a little Willie Junior, but that ain't all.
Well, the baby got famous in his crib, you see,
When he did that hand jive on MTV.

Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive,
Do that crazy hand jive.

For those who don't know George's band were originaly known as The Deleware Destroyers. George and the band lived about ten minutes from my aunt in the center of Wilmington Kent County Deleware USA. I met only George at a Greyhpond station and helped with his luggage and in return gave me an autographed copy of "Move It On Over" as a thank you.
