HONMOKU LINDY
Boogie woogie GT boys
Get on Highway Jitterbug
Sing-a-ring-a GT girls
Hey, Johnny come back
YOKOHAMA BAY SIDE
Do you wanna Jitterbug
Sing-a-ring-a GT girls
Blue ブルースで泣かせて tonight
Paul ポールスターの夜
Cheek チークで恋していても
You あだ名しか知らない
みんなどこに消えてったの
淋しく微笑んで
あの日のよに走りたいよ
騒いで all night long
Hey, Jimmy come back
YOKOSUKA NAVY
Boogie woogie GT boys
Get on Highway Jitterbug
Sing-a-ring-a GT girls
Hey, Johnny come back
YOKOHAMA ARMY
Boogie woogie GT boys
Do you wanna Jitterbug
Sing-a-ring-a GT girls
Duck ダックテイルたちの downtown
Bill ビルボードのネオンサイン
Babe ベイエリアのファイアー・バード
One 湾岸サーキット tonight
懐しさに銀のコイン
ジュークに落としたよ
さよならした悲しい boy friends
届けて Hold me tight
Hey, Jimmy come back

Get on Highway Jitterbug
Sing-a-ring-a GT girls
Hey, Johnny come back
YOKOHAMA BAY SIDE

Do you wanna Jitterbug

GT天国 by 河合奈保子 is a song that describes the nostalgic memories of a time where people danced to the swing and jitterbug rhythm in places like Honmoku Lindy, Yokosuka Navy, and Yokohama Bay Side. The singer references the GT boys and GT girls who were known to dance alongside the music, and how everyone simply vanished with time. The lyrics also mention various places like the downtown of the Duck Tail guys, the neon sign of the Bill Billboard, and the Bay Area's Fire Bird. The song's context is that of reliving the memories of the past, which manifest themselves in the present.
