Lyrics
Well, not too long ago in nineteen fortyfour,
when (F)ev'ry mother's son was goin' off to war,
they had to (E7)lift their spirits high (Am)for Uncle (D7)Sam,
motherhood and (Ab7)apple (G7)pie.
(C)Instead of spendin' money that they didn't have in (B7)hot spots in the Bronx,
(Em)they went to (Am7)hear the kind of jazz (D7)you hear in (Ab7)funky honkytonks.
It made you wanna (Cm6)jump,
shout, knock yourself out!
(Ab7)Boogiewoogie beat is what I'm talkin' about.
If you (F7)had the heebiejeebies you could dance away to the (Ab7)boogiewoogie music the (G7)piano man was playin'.
You could (Cm6)jump,
shout, knock yourself out!
(Ab7)Boogiewoogie beat is what I'm talkin' about.
You could (F7)pull a switcheroonie if you felt lowdown with the (Ab7)boogiewoogie beat of a (G7)piano man who's goin' to town.
(C6)(Who, who, who, who, yeah!
Who, who, who, who, yeah!)
It (C)had the kind of rhythm that would fill the hall;
the (F)plinkin' and the plunkin' drove 'em up the wall.
Then they would (E7)dance and drink their gin,
(Am)and when the (D7)fuzz buzzed, erhood and (Ab7)they'd join (G7)in.
So (C)ev'rybody partied till the cows came home 'cause (B7)that's what boogie's for,
(Em)and ev'ry (Am7)night that dump would jump
(D7)and keep 'em (Ab7)comin' back for more.
It made you wanna (Cm6)jump,
shout, knock yourself out!
(Ab7)Boogiewoogie beat is what I'm talkin' about.
If you (F7)had the heebiejeebies you could dance away to the (Ab7)boogiewoogie music the (G7)piano man was playin'.
You could (Cm6)jump,
shout, knock yourself out!
(Ab7)Boogiewoogie beat is what I'm talkin' about.
You could (F7)pull a switcheroonie if you felt lowdown with the (Ab7)boogiewoogie beat of a (G7)piano man who's goin' to town.
(C6)(Who, who, who, who, yeah!
Who, who, who, who, yeah!)
It Who, who, who, who.)
It (G7)made you wanna (C6)jump,
shout! (Fooderackasacki.)
Wanna (Ab7)jump, shout!
(Slip the talcum You wanna (F7)jump,
shout! (Floydoy, floydoy.)
To the (Ab7)boogiewoogie music the (G7)piano man was (Ab7)playin' you could (Db)jump,
