Paroles

[Verse 1]
I'm gettin' ready for the function at the junction
And baby, you'd better come on right now
Because everybody's gonna be there
We got people comin' from everywhere
[Verse 2]
We got Ling Ting Tong from China
Long tall Sally from Carolina
We got 007, the private eye
And he's bringin' all the guys from I Spy
[Verse 3]
Come one, come all
We gonna have a ball
Down at the function at the junction
And baby, you'd better come on right now
[Verse 4]
We servin' egg foo young and barbecue
Havin' chicken dumplings and kidney stew
Havin' heap big fun till the break of dawn
Gonna shake a tail-feather
Shoot him 'fore he run
[Verse 5]
Hold a shotgun on the rooster
And dare him to crow
How could anybody sleep when they could get out on the floor
[Verse 6]
Tell him, tell them, tell one, and tell 'em all
Tell 'em 'bout the function at the junction
Tell 'em that they'd better come on right now
Tell 'em 'bout the function at the junction, baby
Tell 'em that they'd better come on right now
Oh
[Verse 7]
Oh, the soul brothers, jitterbugs
Hip cats and fancy hats and pretty girls with pretty smiles
All decked out in the latest styles
And farmer Jim and guitar Slim
And Betty Boop and oh-boop-e-doop
And Mohair Sam from Alabam'
And Minnesota Fats from Hobo Flats
Breath-takin' hip-shakin' give it now
Talkin' 'bout some fascinatin' demonstratin' beauty line
[Verse 8]
They all be gatherin' here
From far and near
For the function at the junction
Brother, you better come on right now
Tell 'em 'bout the function at the junction
Sister, you'd better come on right now
Talkin' 'bout a function at the junction
Everybody you'd better come on right now
You ain't never seen a function at the junction
