Do you wanna jump, children?
Do you wanna run, children?
If you want to start, children,
One, two, three,
Start jumpin' with me.


Do you wanna sing, children?
Do you wanna swing, children?
Have you had your plan, children?
One, two, three,
Start jumpin' with me.


I've got trouble,
You've got trouble,
Everybody's got some!
When there trouble,
You kick your trouble
To kingdom come!


Do you wanna jump, children?
Do you wanna jive, children?
Feel that you alive, children?
One, two, three,
Start jumpin' with me.


I've got trouble,
You've got trouble,
Everybody's got some!
When there trouble,
You kick your trouble
To kingdom come!
