Let Me Off Uptown (w/ Gene Krupa) Lyrics

Hey Joe
What d'ya mean Joe, My name's Roy
Well come here Roy and get groovy
You bin uptown?
No I ain't bin uptown but I've bin around
You mean to say you ain't bin uptown?
No I ain't bin uptown, what's uptown?If it's pleasure you're about
And you feel like steppin' out
All you've got to shout is
Let me off uptownIf it's rhythm that you feel
Then it's nothing to conceal
Oh, you've got to spiel it
Let me off uptownRib joints, juke joints, hep joints
Where could a fella go to top itIf you want to pitch a ball
And you can't afford a hall
All you've got to call is
Let me off uptownAnita, oh Anita, say I feel somethin'
Whatcha feel Roy? The heat?

No it must be that uptown rhythm
I feel like blowin'
Well blow Roy, blow.
