Hottest Gong in Town Lyrics

You heard about old Smokey Joe,
now there's someone else that you ought to know about.
A little cat named Si Fu Yow,
and down in Chinatown he's pretty well renowned.
And is you ready to get happy,
he can beat it out, look out, brother, now,
he's got the hottest gong in town.
Well, you know about old c**ey Mo,
and he was boss long, long time ago.
And afterward he kicked the can
that's when mister yow became the number one.
So if you're ready to get happy,
you can meet your sister, look out, tell your brother,
he's got the hottest gong in town.

(scat)

well, you'll never gonna go back home,
and once you've been down there, you, you'll never feel alone.
While you're movin' with that rhythm,
you're gonna swing 'em all while dancin' on the floor.
So is you ready to get happy,
i tell you, don't delay, c'mon, baby, hear him play,
he's got the hottest gong in town.
