Boogie Chillun (Old folks Boogie)   J. L. Hooker / M. Waters

 

I got to boogie for the Doctor, got to boogie for the nerves

I got to keep on boogying 'til they draw me in a hearse

R.: I got to boogie got to boogie 'til the break of dawn.

 

I got to boogie in the alley got to boogie in the street

I got to keep on boogying 'til it knocks me off my feet. R.: ...got the boogie disease

 

Well the old folks boogie and the young folks too

But nobody boogie baby like me and you. R.: ...all night long

 

Well mama told Papa, about the son she had

I said look at here Papa, don't you believe a word. R.: ...all night long

 

I was boogying last night and the night before

I'm gonna get me a bottle so I can boogie some more. R.: ...'til the break of day
