Walkin' the Boogie

Well my mama she didn't 'low me, just to stay out all night long, oh Lord

Well my mama didn't 'low me, just to stay out all night long

I didn't care what she didn't 'low, I would

boogie-woogie

anyhow

When I first came to town people, I was walkin' down Hastings Street

Everybody was talkin' about, the Henry Swing Club

I decided I drop in there that night

When I got there, I say, "Yes, people"

They was really havin' a ball!

Yes, I know

Boogie Chillun

One night I was layin' down,

I heard mama 'n papa talkin'

I heard papa tell mama, let that boy boogie-woogie,

it's in him, and it got to come out

And I felt so good,

went on boogie'n just the same
