From the recording Jazz For Lil' Jumpers
This was originally done by Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra with vocal refrain by The Rhythm Boys (April 20, 1930). Another great version of this track is on my sister Abbie Gardner's jazz album My Craziest Dream.
Lyrics
Happy Feet
I've got those happy feet
Give me a lowdown beat
and they begin dancing
I've got those
ten little tappin' toes
and when they hear the blues
I can't control
my dancing gear to save my soul
Weary blues, can't get into my shoes
Because my shoes refuse to every grow weary
I get tearful on an earful
of music sweet
Because I've got those hap hap hap hap happy feet!
