MOP MOP (Claude Demetrious / Williams) as recorded by Louis Jordan & his Tympany Five 1945 Mop mop, a thousand years ago, Mop mop, a guy named Jungle Joe Was a drummer man in a Zulu band That made swing history. Mop mop, one day the king said, "Gate! Why Gate you old reprobate, I commission you, Find a riff that's new, Or your wig belongs to me." Joe's knees started knockin', So scared he was stiff, Till he noticed the tribe was rockin' As his knees beat out this mellow riff! Mop mop, from the tropics heat, Mop mop, came this jungle beat! Though old Joe is gone, His jive lives on, And it still is makin' history! Joe's knees started knockin', So scared he was stiff, Till he noticed the tribe was rockin' As his knees beat out this mellow riff! Mop mop, from the tropics heat, Mop mop, came this jungle beat! Though old Joe is gone, His jive lives on, And it still is makin' history! (Transcribed by Peter Akers - October 2017)
