You came in last night higher than a saber jet
You said you’d come back to me but you ain’t made it yet
You stood smilin’ at me, all the way ear to ear
But when I rolled you over this morning all I got was a low down sneer

Don’t jive me no more, don’t jive me no more
I’m gonna keep on jivin’ on a shelf at Atlanta star
One time baby your kisses, were like sherry wine
But lately they’ve been tasting, half like turpentine

Don’t jive me no more, don’t jive me no more
I’m gonna keep on jivin’ on a shelf at Atlanta star
I lick on you all over like a stick of candy
But these days momma been tastin’, just like bath tub brandy

Don’t jive me no more, don’t jive me no more
I’m gonna keep on jivin’ on a shelf at Atlanta star
Heard you were off honking, really honking your stuff
Ooh come on home to me baby, ain’t you gettin’ enough

I always thought that you was my own true love
But it looks I went out and got me real mother fucker
Don’t jive me no more, don’t jive me no more
I’m gonna keep on jivin’ on a shelf at Atlanta star
