1943 Broadway Carmen Jones the Musical - Beat Out Dat Rhythm On A Drum (Gypsy Song) Lyrics
The song is written by Georges Bizet and Oscar Hammerstein II.
I'll tell you why I wanna dance. It ain' de sweetness in de music I like de sweetness in de music, But dat ain' why I wanna dance. It's sumpin' thumpin' in de bass, A bumpin' underneath de music. Dat bum-bum-bumpin' under music Is all I need To start me off. I don't need nuthin' else to start me off.
Beat out dat rhythm on a drum, Beat out dat rhythm on a drum, Beat out dat rhythm on a drum, An' I don' need no tune at all! Beat me dat rhythm on a drum, Beat me dat rhythm on a drum, Beat me dat rhythm on a drum, An' I don' need no tune at all!
I feel it beatin' in my bones, It feel like twen'y millyun tomtoms. I know dere's twen'y millyun tomtoms Beatin' way down deep inside my bones.
I feel it beatin' in my heart, An' den I get a kin' o' dream An' in my dream it kin' o' seem Dere's jus' one heart In all de worl' Dere ain't but one big heart for all de worl'.
Beat out dat rhythm on a drum, Beat out dat rhythm on a drum, Beat out dat rhythm on a drum, Dere's one big heart for all de wor'! Beat me dat rhythm on a drum, Beat me dat rhythm on a drum, Beat me dat rhythm on a drum, Dere's one big heart for all de worl'!
An' now dat heart is beatin' fast, An' dat's a rhythm I kin dance to, I'm mighty glad I got a chance to, Wid dat one big heart dat's beatin' fast. Tomorrow mornin' let it rain, Tomorrow mornin' let it pour, Tonight we's in de groove together Ain' gonna worry 'bout stormy weather Gonna kick ol' trouble out de door!
Beat out ol' trouble on a drum, Beat out ol' trouble on a drum, Beat out ol' trouble on a drum, An' kick his carcass through de door! Beat out dat rhythm on a drum, Beat out dat rhythm on a drum, Beat out dat rhythm on a drum, An' kick ol' trouble out de door! Kick 'im out de door! Kick 'im out de door! Kick 'im out de door!
