Boogie Chillin

Well , my Mama she didn't allow me, just to stay out all night long,

... ooh, Lord!

Well , my Mama didn't allow me, just to stay out all night long,

I didn't care if she didn't allow me, I was boogie-woogie'n' anyhow.



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

I heard everybody talkin' 'bout the Henry Swing Club.

I decided to drop in there that night, and when I got there,

I say, yes people, they we're really havin' a ball, yes I know .....

... boogie, chillen'!



One night I was layin' down, I heard Mama and Papa talkin',

I heard Papa tell Mama: Let that boy boogie woogie,

'cause it's in him and it got to come out!

Well, I felt so good, and I went on boogie-woogie'n' just the same,

... yes .....
