Willie and the Hand Jive

Eric Clapton

A Groove (x12)
             A                                                         A Thing
             I know a cat named Way Out Willie
             A                                                                      A Thing
             Got a cool little chick named Rockin' Millie
                         D                                            D Thing
             He can walk and stroll and Suzy-Q
             A                                           A Thing
             Do the crazy hand jive, too

             Mama, mama look at Uncle Joe
             Doin' the hand jive with Sister Flo
             Mama gave baby sister a dime
             To do the hand jive one more time

                                            D
                                  Hand jive
                                            A
                                  Hand jive
                                            E
                                  Hand jive
                                                                       A     A Thing
                                  Doin' that crazy hand jive

            Doctor, and a lawyer, and an Indian chief
            A they all dig that crazy beat
            Way Out Willie give 'em all a treat
            When he did that hand jive with his feet

                                  Hand jive
                                  Hand jive
                                  Hand jive
                                  Doin' that crazy hand jive

            Willie and Millie got married last fall
            They had a little Willie Junior and a that ain't all
            The kids got crazy and it's plain to see
            A doin' the hand jive on T.V.

                                  Hand jive
                                  Hand jive
                                  Hand jive
                                  Doin' that crazy hand jive
                                                                              (jam and fade...)
