Jersey Bounce

Ella Fitzgerald -Jersey Bounce

They call it that Jersey bounce

A rhythm that really counts

The temperature always mounts

Wherever they play the funny rhythm they play

It started on Journal Square

And somebody heard it there

He put it right on the air

And now you hear it everywhere

Uptown gave it new licks

Downtown added some tricks

No town makes it sound the same

As where it came from

So if you don't feel so hot

Go out to some Jersey spot

And whether you're help or not

The Jersey bounce'll make you swing

How I love that Jersey bounce

Oh come on and play that Jersey bounce

They call it that Jersey bounce

A rhythm that really counts

The temperature always mounts

Whenever they play that Jersey Bounce

It started on Journal Square

And somebody heard it there

He put it right on the air

That tune called the Jersey Bounce

Uptown gave it new licks

Downtown added some tricks

No town make it sound the same

As where it came from

So if you don't feel so hot

Go out to some Jersey spot

And whether you're help or not

The Jersey bounce'll make you swing

Ounce by ounce

The Jersey Bounce

Puts you right in the swing

That Jersey Bounce

It'll make you swing

Give me that Jersey Bounce
