Jump for Joy Duke Ellington

[Verse 1]
Fare thee well, land of cotton
Cotton lisle is out of style
Honey child, jump for joy

[Verse 2]
Don't you grieve, little Eve
All the hounds I do believe have been killed
Ain't you thrilled? Jump for joy

[Bridge]
Have you seen pastures groovy?
Oh, Green Pastures was just a Technicolor movie

[Verse 3]
When you stomp up to heaven
And you meet old Saint Pete
Tell that boy to jump for joy
Step right in, give Pete some skin and jump for joy
