Jumpin' Jive is a Cab Calloway song that Calloway performed in Sesame Street's season 12 with the Two-Headed Monster.
Calloway discovers the monster debating over whether they should jump or jive. Calloway explains that they should get into the "cooperation groove", leading to his performance of the song on a nightclub stage in front of dining Anything Muppets.
Like "Hi De Ho Man", there is a call-and-response section, with the repetition of the nonsensical phrase, "Hep hep!"
