You clap your hands And you swing out wide Do the susie q Mix in a step or two Put 'em all together And you're doin the jive Oh you stomp your feet You swing out wide Mess around awhile Shake it boogie woogie style Everybody's swinging when you doin the jive If you can't play Romeo or? Don't let it bother you Cause you'll be the King When the band begins to swing You'll be a smarty & the life of the party If you do bump And you swing out wide Drop a little bit Beat it out Make a fit Everybody's happy when you're doin the jive It may be somethin' but it's not the jive It may be somethin' but it's not the jive Well what is the jive? (More spoken) You clap your hands And you swing out wide Do the susie q Mix in a step or two Put it all all together And you're doin the jive Oh you stomp your feet And you swing out wide Mess around awhile Shake it boogie woogie style Everybody's swinging when you doin the jive If you can't play Romeo or? Don't let it bother you Cause you'll be the King When the band begins to swing You'll be a smarty & the life of the party If you do a bump And you swing out wide Drop a little bit Beat it out & Make a fit Everybody's happy when you're doin the jive

Brother why'd you have to go? You left us all so soon. Remember that song I wrote about your family years ago? Well they're waiting for you to come home. What do I do? What do I say? And dad tells me to pray. So I prayed and prayed but the hurt won't go away. The pain gets worse it never stops. And I've asked the lord for us to swap, I've begged and plead Cuz you have kids to feed. Why is it always stormy weather? And brother tell me if it all gets better. Why did you leave? Why did you die? You finally made your brother cry. I know you're watching over us tonight, and I hope you're watching over us tonight. I'm sorry I missed your call. I wasn't there for you at all. And now I thought it through, maybe if I answered you that you would still be here all along. Now no more calls can't you see? I took for granted family and once they're gone you'll never get that back. No more laughs no more hugs, so hold on to the ones you love. Your soul is free, I love you Anthony. Why is it always stormy weather? And brother tell me when does it get better? Why did you leave? Wlhy did you die? You finally made your brother cry. I know you're watching over us tonight, and I hope you're watching over us tonight.
