GOT THE JITTERS
Words by Billy Rose & Paul Francis Webster, music by John Jacob Loeb.
As recorded by Isham Jones and His Orchestra, 1933.

Got the jitters; got the jitters.
Got the jitters; got the jitters; got the jitters
Like the pounding of a hammer,
And the clatter and the clamor
Of Manhattan's panorama,
Got the jitters.

Get my broker; get my broker.
Buy a hundred thousand shares of tapioca.
Get Chicago on the wire.
Hello, Mister McIntyre.
Tapioca's goin' higher.
Got the jitters.

Bought a penthouse with a view.
I haven't had a chance to see the view.
Bought a shiny Cadillac.
Always use a taxi there and back.

Got the jitters; got the jitters.
Got the jitters; got the jitters; got the jitters.
From the moment that I get up,
On the go without a letup.
How about another setup?
Got the jitters.

Like a million other critters
Who are not exactly quitters
I'm a much bewildered man who's got the jitters!
