Born To Hand Jive Lyrics & Chords By Glee Cast

Mercedes:
Before I was born late one night
My papa said everything's alright
The doctor paid, my Mama laid down
With her stomach bouncing all around
'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
