Well, not too long ago in nineteen forty-four

When every mother's son was goin' off to war

They had to lift they spirits high (High!)

For Uncle Sam, motherhood and apple pie

Instead of spendin' money that they didn't have

In hot spots in the Bronx

They went to hear the kind of jazz

You hear in funky honky-tonks



It made you wanna

Jump (jump!), shout (shout!), knock yourself out

A boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talkin' about

If you had the heebie-jeebies you could dance away

To the boogie-woogie music the piano man was playin'

You could jump (jump!), shout (shout!), knock yourself out

A boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talkin' about

You could pull a switcheroonie if you felt low down

With the boogie-woogie beat of a piano man who's goin' to town



(doot, doot, doot doo, yeah)

(doot, doot, doot doo, yeah)



It had the kind of rhythm that would fill the hall

The plinkin' and the plunkin' drove 'em up the wall

And they would dance and drink their gin (yeah!)

And when the fuzz (fuzz) buzzed (buzzed), they'd join in

So everybody partied 'till the cows came home

'cause that's what boogie's for

And every night that dump would jump (jump, jump)

And keep 'em comin' back for more



Because it made you wanna

Jump (jump!), shout (shout!), knock yourself out

A boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talkin' about

If you had the heebie-jeebies you could dance away

To the boogie-woogie music the piano man was playin'

You could jump (jump!), shout (shout!), knock yourself out

A boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talkin' about

You could pull a switcheroonie if you felt low down

With the boogie-woogie beat of a piano man who's goin' to town



(doot, doot, doot doo, yeah)

(doot, doot, doot doo, yeah)



It made you wanna

Jump (jump!), shout (shout!)

(Foo-der-acka-sacki)

Wanna jump (jump!), shout (shout!)

(Slip the talcum to me Malcom)

You wanna jump (jump!), shout (shout!)

(Floy-doy, floy-doy)

To the boogie-woogie music the piano man was playin'



You could jump (jump!), shout (shout!), knock yourself out

A boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talkin' about

You could pull a switcheroonie if you felt low down

To the boogie-woogie beat of a piano, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, ha
