Lyrics:

[Verse]
He wears a zoot suit with a reet pleat
Drives a 36 Cord with a rumble seat
Now hes a, Lord, he's a jitterbug
Scare the letters off a highway sign
He drinks beer and eats beanies
Chases it down with old Thunderbird wine
Carries brass knuckles and a .44
Runs a loan shark business and a Mary Jane store
Hes a, he's a jitterbug; keeps moving, don't sit still
If the law don't get him, some gun-totin irate husband will
Oh, oh, oh, ooh, ooh, ooh, jitterbug, jitterbug
One day in September he stepped out of his Cord
Into the street to face a bullet spitting Ford
Now hes jitterbug, just a name in the news
Said, 'He finally paid the price, he finally paid his dues'

[Outro]
Jitterbug, jitterbug, jitterbug, jitterbug
Jitterbug, jitterbug, jitterbug, jitterbug
