Who's that whisperin' in the trees? It's two sailors and they're on leave Pipes and chains and swingin' hands Who's your daddy? Yes I am Fat cat came to play Now you can't run fast enough You'd best stay away When the pushers come to shove Zoot suit riot (Riot) Throw back a bottle of beer Zoot suit riot (Riot) Pull a comb through your coal black hair Zoot suit riot (Riot) Throw back a bottle of beer Zoot suit riot (Riot) Pull a comb through your coal black hair Blow daddy! A whipped up jitterbuggin' brown eyed man A stray cat frontin' up an eight-piece band Cut me Sammy and you'll understand In my veins hot music ran You got me in a sway And I want to swing you down
Now you sailors know Where your women come for love Zoot suit riot (Riot) Throw back a bottle of beer Zoot suit riot (Riot) Pull a comb through your coal black hair You're in a Zoot suit riot You're in a Zoot suit riot You're in a Zoot suit riot Oh you got me in a sway And I want to swing you down Now you sailors know Where your women come for love Zoot suit riot (Riot) Throw back a bottle of beer Zoot suit riot (Riot) Pull a comb through your coal black hair Zoot suit riot (Riot) Throw back a bottle of beer Zoot suit riot (Riot) Pull a comb through your coal black hair You're in a Zoot suit riot You're in a Zoot suit riot You're in a Zoot suit riot
