Java Jive Songtext
von The Manhattan Transfer

Love coffee, I love tea
I love the Java Jive and it loves me
Coffee and tea and the java and me
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup

I love java, sweet and hot
Whoops, Mr.Moto, I′m a coffee pot!
Shoot me the pot and I'll pour me a shot
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup

Oh, slip me a slug from that wonderful mug
And I′ll cut a rug till I'm snug in a jug
A slice of onion and a raw one

Draw one
Waiter, waiter, percolator

I love coffee, I love tea
I love the Java Jive and it loves me
Coffee and tea and the java and me
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup


Boston bean, soy beans
I said a 'lil ity bity green bean
Cabbage and greens

You know that I′m not keen about a bean
Unless it is a chili chili bean
Talk it, boy

I love java, sweet and hot
Whoops, Mr.Moto, I′m a coffee pot!
You shoot me the pot and I'll pour me a shot
A cup, a cup, a cup Slip me a slug from that wonderful mug
And I′ll cut a rug that's snug in a jug
Drop your nickel in my pot, Joe

Takin′ it slow
Waiter, waiter, percolator

I love coffee, I love tea
I love the Java Jive and it loves me
Coffee and tea and the java and me
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, boy
