My baby likes to bebop

I was bopped on the head
Now I'm tall as a treetop
And just to enlighten you
I'm through with shortening bread
'Cause my baby likes to bebop
And I like to bebop too

I was down on my heel
So I hopped to the shoe shop
to fix up my boots like new
I gotta be on the jump
'Cause my baby likes to bebop
And I like to bebop 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 hepcats do
I flipped my lid when he said
"My baby likes to bebop
and I like to bebop too"
