Lyrics Glee Cast – Born To Hand Jive
Text:
Mercedes:
Before I was born late one night
My papa said everything’s alright
The doctor paid, my Mama laid down
‘Cause the beebop stork was about to arrive
Mama gave birth to a hand-jive
Mercedes and Marley:
I could barely walk when I milked a cow
When I was three I pushed a plow
Jake:
While chopping wood I moved my legs
And they saw me dance when I gathered eggs
Marley and Ryder:
The townfolk clapped, I was only five
Out-dance ’em all, he was born to hand-jive!
Mercedes:
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah — everybody
Mercedes with New Directions, Mike and Kitty:
Born to hand-jive, baby
Born to hand-jive, baby
Mercedes:
How low can you go?
Marley:
How low can you go?
Ryder:
How low can you go?
Jake:
How low can you go?
Higher!
Ryder:

Marley:

Mercedes:
And higher, yeah!
Ryder with New Directions:
Now can you hand jive, baby?

Oh can you hand jive, baby? (
