My Baby Likes to Bebop (and I Like to Bebop Too) Songtext
von 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
To 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
