My Baby Likes To Be Bop - Ella Fitzgerald

My Baby Likes To Be Bop - Ella Fitzgerald
I was bopped on the head
Now I'm tall as a treetop
And just to end like new
I find the melody's dead
'Cause my baby likes to be-bop
And I like to be-bop too
I was down on my heels
So I hopped to the shoe shop;
"Shoe fix up my boots like new
I gotta be on the job
'Cause my baby likes to be-bop
And I like to be-bop 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 hep cats do
I flipped my lid when he said
"My baby likes to be-bop
And I like to be-bop too "
How I love to be-bop too
How I love to be-bop too
I saw old Uncle Ned
Do a dance and a flip-flop
He jumped like the hep cats do
I flipped my lid when he said
"My baby likes to be-bop
And boy
And I like to be-bop too "
