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 he can't run fast enough
You had best stay away
When the pushers come to shove
Zoot suit riot
Throw back a bottle of beer
Zoot suit riot
Pull a comb through your coal black hair
Chorus
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 dove
Now you sailors know
Where your women come for love
Chorus
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 dove
Now you sailors know
Where your women come for love
Chorus
Chorus
You're in a zoot suit riot
You're in a zoot suit riot
You're in a zoot suit riot
