Are You All Reet Lyrics

(Calloway, Palmer, Clark)
From Cab Calloway and His Orchestra, 1940-1941; Chronological Classics 629

Do you come on like Shorty George and me?
Just speel some jive, we'll dig you out, you see
(Well, all reet!)

Are you ready?
(Yes, we're ready, Joe!)
Jumping steady?
(Jumping steady, Joe!)
You look solid, Joe
All I want to know
Are you all reet?
(Yes, we're all reet!)

You can get it
(Can we get it?)
If you set it
(Can we set it, Joe?)
Come on, let me go
All I want to know
Are you all reet?
(Yes, we're all reet!)

I'm like a tree, I'm all root
Hep to the jep, what it's all aboot!
Stashed like a top, don't miss a stop
I dig my kicks from the groovy lot!

Are you really?
(Yes, we're really!)
Trilly frilly? Woo-woo!
(Woo-woo!)
I don't go Navaho Come and let me know
Are you all reet?
(Yes, we're all reet!)

(Are you ready, Joe?)
Yes, I'm ready, old man!
(Jumpin' steady, Joe?)
Jumpin' with the jive, Jack!
(That's all we want to know)
What do you want to know?
(Are you all reet?)
Jump in the groove and go!

(Yes, he's all reet!)
(Yes, he's all reet!)

I'm like a tree, I'm all root
Hep to the jep, what it's all aboot!
Stashed like a top, don't miss a stop
I dig my kicks from the groovy lot!

Are you really?
(Yes, we're really!)
Trilly, frilly frilly frilly frilly?
(Woo-woo!)
Now, don't go Navaho
Come and let me know
Are you all reet?
(Yes, we're all reet!)

There's one thing we want to know
Are we solid; do we send you, Joe?
We are ready and we want to know:
Are you all reet?
