Slap That Bass (Film Version) lyrics by Fred Astaire feat. Dudley Dickerson

Verse: Dudley Dickerson
Zoom zoom, zoom zoom
The world is in a mess (Yeah)
With politics and taxes
And people grinding axes
There’s no happiness
Zoom zoom, zoom zoom
Rhythm, lead your ace
The future doesn’t fret me
If I can only get me
Someone to slap that bass
Happiness is not a riddle
When I’m listenin’ to that big bass fiddle

Chorus: Fred Astaire
Slap that bass
Slap it ‘til it’s dizzy
Slap that bass
Keep the rhythm busy
Zoom, zoom, zoom
Misery, you got to go (Misery, you got to go)
Slap that bass
Use it like a tonic
Slap that bass
Keep your Philharmonic
Zoom, zoom, zoom
And the milk and honey’ll flow
Dictators would be better off
If they zoom-zoomed now and then
Today you can see that the happiest men
All got rhythm
In which case
If you want to bubble
Slap that bass
Slap away your trouble
Learn to zoom, zoom, zoom
Slap that bass
