Clapton, Eric - Willie And The Hand Jive Lyrics
I know a cat named Way-Out Willie,
Got a cool little chick named Rocking Millie.
He can walk and stroll and Susie Q
And do that crazy hand jive, too.
Doing the hand jive with sister Flo.
Grandma gave baby sister a dime;
Said, "Do that hand jive one more time."
[Chorus:]
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive,
Do that crazy hand jive.
Doctor and a lawyer and an Indian chief,
They all dig that crazy beat.
When he did that hand jive with his feet.
[Chorus]
Willie and Millie got married last fall.
They had a little Willie junior and that ain't all.
Well, the kids got crazy and it's plain to see,
Doing the hand jive on T.V.
[Chorus]

Clapton, Eric Willie And The Hand Jive Comments
Great Version!
For those wondering, the musicians are lead vocalist-guitarist Eric Clapton, lead vocalist Yvonne Elliman, guitarist George Terry, bassist Carl Radle, drummer Jamie Oldaker, and organist Dick Sims.
very good, but george thoroughgoods is better
This is by far the coolest version. Viva Eric
Check out this...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wz7IRdvQsG0&list=OLAK5uy_nKapT_RQfHgzBFDDe18N7hFi41_2JF500&index=4&t=0s
Clapton is so baked but that guitar just flies man!
The follow up with Yvonne Elliman get the blood pumpin', man!
who is doing the HAND JIVE in 2019? I am pulling my pud to this! Talkin' bout jerkin' it, baby haha. Yeah.
Barry Scott and the “Lost 45s” brought me here.
That's funny that's what brought me here. The Sunday show
No one else can suck the life out of a song like Clapton
Eric Clapton trying to sound like the Grateful Dead ?
Esse é fera e dispensa comentários.
"I Shot The Sheriff" was on the same album.
Very much like 'Not fade away' by Buddy Holly.
Yes. Basically the Bo Diddley beat.
Eric Clapton and
the "Hand Jive"😄
😂Ha ha ha
Miami is a tough place to quit coke.
slowhand jive
Estava escrito no metrô de Londres," Eric Clapton is God", e o cara é Deus, o DEUS DA GUITARRA.
Hey everyone look at my dog, hes over there on that log. Standing high and looking cute, my little dog does the hand jive too.
I love me some Eric Clapton. Mmmmm, he da man.

Who can do the Hand Jive?
I know a cat name way out Willie
Who had a cool little chick named rockin Billy

Vili-kissan nimi tuli...tästä biisistä...
Momma look at uncle joe
461 Ocean Boulevard really got me going on the guitar. I play the guitar for 41 years now.

Whos smoking one right now? me and mine salute you.
im with yeeeahhhhhhhhh............
If i must smoke each time I listen that song it's over for me
Johnny Otis tune.
Ah, takes me back to late 80s..high school summer vacations, drinking beer on warm summer days at the lake with everyone.
I can sooo do that crazy hand jive. Search on youtube - pretty little lady will teach you in 3 minutes!
Holy in the pocket groove! Who on the hell played the drums on this???! Absolute pure pocket groove!!
He must have been listening to mid 70's Jamaican drummers - who would play a One Drop on a song like this?
Love this! played it a dozen times last night… never heard his version before.
this song sucks
No it doesn't at all
@Traci Cortes opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one and most of them stink. But in my opinion this song just grooves!
I may be responsible for 70k of the 82k views. Just saying. ;)
Wahahaha. Good one!!!
shittiest hand jive ever
It's a far more sophisticated reworking you dunce!
is this Clappers singing?It doesn't really sound like him
yes it is
Oh it's Clapton alright. His voice sounds like velvet, IMHO.
I know a cat named Way-out Willie
He's got a groovy little chick named Rocking' Lily
Yeah, rock'n'rolling Suzie Q
Does that crazy old hand jive, too
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive
Do that crazy hand jive
Mama, mama, look at Sister Flo
Doing that hand jive with Uncle Joe
When I gave little sister a dime
I said "Do that hand jive one more time"
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive
Do that crazy hand jive
A doctor, a lawyer and an Indian Chief
They all dig that Diddley beat
Way-out Willie gave them all a treat
When he did that hand jive with his feet
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive
Do that crazy hand jive
Papa told Willie, "You'll ruin my home
You and that hand jive have got to go"
Willie told Papa, "Don't you put me down
They're doing that hand jive all around town"
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive
Do that crazy hand jive
Willie and Lily got married last fall
They had a little Willie Junior, and that ain't all
Well, the baby got famous in his crib, you see
When he did that hand jive on MTV
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive
Do that crazy hand jive
WOW WOW WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From a 72yo Aussie fan.
Best song ever :-)
The title of this song made me think it was about wanking.
Check it out if you're never heard Eric's version!
Yeah, it's Bo Diddliesh, but this cut is to perfection. Clapton is at his very best when it's kept simple. I have always loved this song, done by Eric.
Dunlousa DaBlues Johnny Otis...
"461 Ocean Blvd" from 1974
6 people suck
Bo Diddley's all over this one
Jonny Otis
got the grove on
thank u lisa franks im fucken grovin woo woooo
Mainline Florida is not the name of the album, that is another song on the album. The album is called '461 Ocean Boulevard.' Great album.
knothead5876 it was on the B side perhaps?
I THINK Mainline Florida MIGHT have been the b-side of this 45. but could be mistaken.
nope, its just the b side of the 45rpm single. they usualy type down the A side with a bigger font size and the B side a bit smaller.
It jaimie oldaker on drums , the best unknown .
Do that crazy handgina
Guys, I love this song and I wanted to listen to more songs on this style, can you suggest me?
@Bruno Negrao Zica BO DIDDLEY.....AND GOOD LUCK...
+Bruno Negrao Zica , just listen the full album
@Axel Baroero
J.J. Cale's version of "After Midnight."
ジョニー・オーテイス作曲、ボ・デイドリー・ビートのこの曲は、クラプトンのバージョンが耳に馴染んでる。
