John Travolta & Olivia Newton-John Born to Hand Jive lyrics

Before I was born late one night
My Papa said, "Everything's all right"
The doctor made my Ma lay down
With a semitone bouncing all around
'Cause a Be-Bop stork was about to arrive
Mama gave birth to the hand jive

I could barely walk when I milked a cow
When I was three I pushed a plow
While choppin' wood I moved my legs
And started dancin' while I gathered eggs
The townfolk clapped, I was only five
"He'll outdance 'em all, he's a born hand jive"

Everybody
Born to hand jive, baby
Born to hand jive, baby


How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?

Higher, higher
Higher and higher

Now you can hand jive, baby
Oh, can you hand jive, baby?
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Born to hand jive, oh yeah
