When I first into town people I was comin' down Hasting Street Heard everybody talkin' about Henry's Swing Club I decided I'd drop in there that night I got down there Everybody was drinkin' bourbon, scotch, beer, and wine And feelin' just fine Said let's go people Get boogie tonight
Well, the little red rooster Told the little red hen Meet me down at the barn Bout half past ten You bring the whiskey, child I'll bring the wine We get together gonna rock it tonight We gonna boogie Yeah, boogie til the break of dawn Boogie Chillen Boogie Chillen
Well, the mama told papa The night before last Boogie here daddy He was runnin' outta gas Boogied last night and the night before Fly back here we gonna shake it some more We gonna boogie Yeah, boogie til the break of dawn Boogie Chillen
Now one night I was layin' down I could hear my mother and father talkin' Hear my mama tell my daddy Let that boy boogie woogie It's in him, and it's got to come out Lord I felt so good Well I boogie woogie all night long Yeah I did
Now when I'm feelin' cool and good, baby Like I feel right now I let my guitar say what I say Boogie Chillen Boogie Chillen Boogie Chillen
