Hit that jive Jack
Put it in your pocket till I get back
Going downtown to see a man
And I ain't got time to shake your hand

Hit that jive Jack
Put it in your pocket till I get back
Time and time waits for no man
And I ain't got time to shake your hand

Standing on a corner
All full of jive
But you know that you're my boy
And I'll always give you five

Hit that jive Jack
Put it in your pocket till I get back
Going downtown to see a man
And I ain't got time to shake your hand

Hit that jive Jack
Put it in your pocket till I get back
Going downtown to see a man
And I ain't got time to shake your hand

Hit that jive Jack
Put it in your pocket till I get back
Time and time waits for no man
And I ain't got time to shake your hand

Standing on a corner
All full of jive
But you know that you're my boy
And I'm forced to give you five

Hit that jive Jack
Put it in your pocket till I get back
Going downtown to see a man
And I ain't got time to shake your hand

Hit that jive Jack
Put it in your pocket
Hit that jive Jack
Put it in your pocket
Hit that jive Jack
Put it in your pocket
Hit that jive Jack
Put it in your pocket

Hit that jive Jack
Put it in your pocket till I get back
Going downtown to see a man
And I ain't got time

I ain't got time
I ain't got time to shake your hands
Won't you put it in your pocket till I get back

Overall Meaning

The singer is heading downtown to see someone important, and they don't want to waste any time. They tell Jack to “hit that jive,” which means to get going, and to put it in his pocket until they return. The repetition of this phrase highlights the urgency of the situation.


The singer is also keen to emphasize that time is of the essence, stating that "time and time waits for no man." This statement is a reminder that we should all make the most of the time we have and not waste it on trivial matters. The singer acknowledges that Jack is their boy and that they will always give him five (a hand gesture symbolizing a high-five). This indicates that while the singer is in a rush, they still value their relationship with Jack.


Overall, "Hit That" is a catchy song about the importance of time management and seizing the moment. It encourages the listener to take action, pursue their goals, and make the most of their time, all while maintaining the bonds of friendship.
