George Gershwin - Oh, I Can't Sit Down! lyrics

Oh, I can't sit down! Got to keep a-goin'
Like the flowin' of a song
Oh, I can't sit down!
Guess I'll take my honey an' her sunny
Smile along today I is gay an' I's free
Jes' a bubblin' nothin' troublin'
Me oh, I'm going to town
I can't sit down!

Happy feelin' in my bones a-stealin'
No concealin' dat it's picnic day
Sho' is dandy got de licker handy
Me an' Mandy we is on de way
'Cause dis is picnic day

Oh, I can't sit down! Got to keep a-jumpin'
To de thumpin' of de drum
Oh, I can't sit down! Full of locomotion
Like an ocean full of rum
Today I is gay an' I's free jes' a bubblin'
Nothin' troublin' me
Oh, I'm going to town
I can't, jes' can't sit down!
