Got the Jitters Songtext
von Don Redman and His Orchestra

Got the jitters,
Got the jitters.
(Got the jitters, got the jitters, got the jitters.)
Like the pounding of a hammer
And the clatter and the clamour
Of Manhattan panorama,
Got the jitters.


Get my broker,
Say get my broker.
(Five hundred thousand shares of tapioca.)
Get Chicago on the wire.
Hello Mr. MacIntyre.
Tapioca′s going higher.
Got the jitters.

You know I bought a penthouse with a view
But I haven't had a chance to SEE the view.
Bought a shiny Cadillac
But I always take a taxi there and back.

Got the jitters.
I got the jitters.
(Got the jitters, got the jitters, got the jitters.)
You know, from the moment that I get up
On the go without a let-up.
Waiter, bring another set-up!
Got the jitters.

(Got the jitters, got the jitters.)
