Otis Day & The Knights - Function at the Junction lyrics

I'm getting ready for the function at the junction And baby you'd better come on right now Because everybody's gonna be there We got people comin' from everywhere We got Ling Ting Tong from China Long Tall Sally from Carolina We got 007, the private eye And he's bringin' all the guys from "I Spy" Come one, come all, we gonna have a ball Down at the function at the junction And baby you'd better come on right now We serving egg foo yung and barbecue Having chicken dumplings and kidney stew Having heap big fun till the break of dawn Gonna shake a tailfeather shoot him 'fore he run Hold a shotgun on the rooster, and dare him to crow How could anybody sleep when they could get out on the floor Tell him, tell them, tell one and tell 'em all Tell 'em 'bout the function at the junction Tell 'em that they'd better come on right now Tell 'em 'bout the function at the junction Tell 'em that they'd better come on right now Oh the soul brothers, Jitterbugs Hip cats and fancy hats and Pretty girls with pretty smiles All decked out in the latest styles And Farmer Jim and Guitar Slim and Betty Boop and ooo-boop-e-doop And Mohair Sam from Alabam And Minnesota Fats from Hobo Flats Breath-takin' Hip-shakin' give it now Talkin' bout some fascinatin' demonstratin' They all be gathering here, from far and near For the Function at the Junction Brother, you'd better come on right now Tell 'em 'bout the function at the junction Sister, you'd better come on right now Talkin' 'bout a function at the junction Everybody you'd better come on right now
