Old Uncle Joe, ain’t your heart in a bow?
Ask me why one fine morn
You’ll catch on What it’s all about
Oh, if you latch on Brother, let me hear you shout!
Boys are boys, girls are girls
But what kinds of boys are the ones that make curls?
You’ll catch on What it’s all about
Oh, if you latch on Brother, let me hear you shout!
When summer is here, the farmers get gay
They all make whoopie and hay-hay!
You’ll catch on What it’s all about
Oh, if you latch on Brother, let me hear you shout!
I can shake my shimmy and do the rhumba
But I can’t hit the number!
You’ll catch on What it’s all about
Oh, if you latch on Brother, let me hear you shout!
Now, I ain’t good and I ain’t bad
Just a brown-skinned gal who can’t be had
Do you catch on What it’s all about?
Oh, if you latch on Brother, let me hear you shout!
Spoken: Do you catch on, everybody? Did y’all catch on?
