Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Some cats say that bop is dead
But that cat done lost his head
Tell that square he's been misled
'Cause everybody's boppin'
[Verse 2]
Bop ain't dead, that's a line of jive
Each and every man don't care for the lie
Tell that square to take a dive
'Cause everybody's boppin'
[Verse 3]
Is you say bop is dead then you're just tellin' a lie
'Cause these white cats are fallin'
[Verse 4]
Throw your arm on the be-bop gig
Faith in yourself, don't miss the take
Bop's alive, ain't gonna quit
'Cause everybody's boppin'
[Verse 5]
Some cats say that bop is dead
But that cat done lost his head
Tell that square he's been misled
'Cause everybody's boppin'
[Verse 6]
Bop ain't dead, that's a line of jive
Each and every man don't care for the lie
Tell that square to take a dive
'Cause everybody's boppin'
[Verse 7]
If you say bop is dead then you're just tellin' a lie
'Cause these little cats are fallin'
[Verse 8]
Throw your arm on the be-bop gig
Faith in yourself, don't miss the take
Bop's alive, ain't gonna quit
'Cause everybody's boppin'
