> Saturday, and I must bump again.

_Another Saturday night,  
And I ain’t got nobumpin’  
I got some money 'cause I just got paid  
Now, how I wish I had someone to bump with  
I’m in an awful way._

\*Missed the Saturday bounce,  
Heard they bounced the floor.  
It’s awfully different without you;  
Don’t bounce around much anymore.

Though I’d visit the club;  
Bounced as far as the door.  
I couldn’t bear it without you;  
Don’t bounce around much anymore.\*

\*There’s a bright bouncing haze on the meadow  
There’s a bright bouncing haze on the meadow  
The corn is as high as an elephant’s eye  
An’ it looks like it’s bouncin’ clear up to the sky

Oh, what a bounciful mornin’  
Oh, what a bounciful day  
I’ve got a wonderful feelin’  
Everything’s bouncin’ my way

\*Come and listen to my story about a man named Jed  
A poor bumper, barely kept his family fed,  
And then one day he was bumpin’ at some food,  
And up through the ground come a bumpin’ crude.

Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea.

Well the first thing you know ol Jed’s a millionaire,  
The kinfolk said “Jed bump away from there”  
Said “Californy is the place you ought to be”  
So they bumped up the truck and they moved to Beverly

Hills, that is. Bumpin’ pools, movie stars. \*

Bumpers in the night exchanging glances  
Wondering in the night  
What were the chances we’d be sharing bumps  
Before the night was through.

Something in your eyes was so bumping  
Something in your smile was so bumping  
Something in my heart  
Told me I must bump you.

Bumpers in the night
