Quarter to Three

Gary "U.S." Bonds



Don't you know that I danced, I danced till a quarter to three

With the help, last night, of Daddy G.

He was swingin on the sax like a nobody could

And I was dancin' all over the room.

Oh, don't you know the people were dancin' like they were mad,

it was the swingin'est band they had, ever had.

It was the swingin'est song that could ever be,

It was a night with Daddy G.

Let me tell you now,

I never had it so good

Yeah and I know you never could

Until you get hip with that jive

And take a band like the Church Street Five.

Oh don't you know that I danced,

I danced till a quarter to three

With the help last night of Daddy G.

Everybody was as happy as they could be

And they were swingin with Daddy G.

Blow Daddy!

Let me tell you now,

I never had it so good

Yeah and I know you never could

Until you get hip with that jive

And take a band like the Church Street Five.

Oh don't you know that I danced,

I danced till a quarter to three

With the help last night of Daddy G.

He was swingin on the sax like a nobody could,

and I was dancin all over the room

Oh don't you know the

Dance, do bee wa dah

Dance, do bee wah dah

You can dance, do bee wah dah,

You can dance, dance, dance
