JUMPIN' FROM SIX TO SIX
(O. Ervin)
JIMMY WILSON (BIG TOWN 115, 1954)

My baby went out and stayed out all night long
Well, my baby went out and stayed out all night long
She told me a lie, she couldn't find her way back home
'Cause she was jumpin' from six to six
Jumpin' from six to six
Jumpin' from six to six
Jumpin' from six to six
Jumpin' from six to six
She got herself in a heck of a fix

Now, she called me up, about five twenty-five
Said, pick me up daddy, I don't want no jive
Ten minutes later, her boyfriend calls
And says, come on baby, let's have a ball
Jumpin' from six to six
Jumpin' from six to six
Jumpin' from six to six
Jumpin' from six to six
Jumpin' from six to six
She got herself in a heck of a fix

She comes staggerin' in the door about a quarter to one
Asks me, daddy did I do wrong?
Stepped aside and draw'red back
She did all right, dirt in y'r eyes!
Jumpin' from six to six
Jumpin' from six to six
Jumpin' from six to six
Jumpin' from six to six
Jumpin' from six to six
She got herself in a heck of a fix
Got herself a fix!
