| Another Saturday night and everybody gets together | |
| The pubs are turning out and all the streets are alive | |
| But the people wanna party so they come back to our house | |
| Everybody gonna do the U.K Jive | |
| Dad's got a crate of beer and it's an open invitation | |
| He's ever-so elated and so are his mates | |
| Everybody's welcome to bring all their dates home | |
| To syncopate and celebrate the U.K. Jive | |
| Swing your partner to the left, swing he back to the right | |
| Don't stand in the middle and act cool all night | |
| Everybody act a fool, jump around, lose your mind | |
| Celebrate and typify the sign of the times | |
| Do that U.K. Jive | |
| Do that U.K. Jive | |
| U.K. O.K. U.K. O.K. gimme that U.K. Jive | |
| (Repeat) | |
| You gotta swing to the left, then back to the right | |
| You gotta learn to swing both ways | |
| When you're jiving in the U.K. O.K. U.K. | |
| Mum's all annoyed dad forgot the inflation | |
| He blew all his wages by half past nine | |
| Now he's bought a gramophone on the never never | |
| And the tally man's gotta have his money on time | |
| But the kids are jumping round | |
| And they're wearing out their leather | |
| Driving all the neighbours out of their minds | |
| Make a noise with boys and girls of the nation | |
| That's the explanation of the U.K. Jive | |
| Blow in my ear, I like the way you do that | |
| And that's what I wanna hear | |
| Is that a fact? | |
| Are you jiving me? | |
| Oh, you bad pussy cat | |
| You'll make papa mad | |
| Do that U.K. Jive | |
| Do that U.K. Jive | |
| U.K O.K. U.K. O.K. | |
| Do that U.K. Jive | |
| (Repeat) |
