"Jump in the Line (Shake, Senora)" is a calypso song sung by Harry Belafonte and composed by Lord Kitchener.
Woody Herman and his Third Herd recorded Kitchener's song in 1952 for Mars Records; Herman's band recorded it live that same year with the title "Jump in Line." Lord Invader released a cover of the song on the Folkways Label in 1955, titled "Labor Day (Jump in the Line)". His rendition reached mento star Lord Flea, who in turn recorded a version based on Lord Invader's interpretation. It was released in August 1, 1958, by Capitol Records.
