| Yeah I like to rock and I like to roll
|
| Most of all darlin' I like to ball
|
| Boogie feels good and good in my heart
|
| Makes me so good I don’t think I 'll stop
|
| When I get to feelin good I shake my thing
|
| I get to fellin' good forget about everything
|
| I just get a boogie deep down in my soul
|
| I’m not afraid to react not afraid to let go
|
| I-m from Detroit where the boogie was born
|
| I been boogie’n since '51
|
| Taught to me by a fellow named John
|
| Corner of brush in '51

| don’t be afraid,
|

|
| you know what I mean
|
| yes I keep a woman because she has my child
|
| I keep a girl, she’s got my child,
|
| Some of the things she does just make my mind go wild
|
| I tell her back off, sometimes she don’t hear
|
| I tell her get back baby, sometimes she won’t hear
|
| Then she gets a li’l push, I make my position clear
|
| Look out baby
|
| I’m like a train conductor, baby,
|
| When it comes to my life,
|
| I’m like an airplane pilot darlin'
|
| When it comes to my life,
|
| I kick you off my flight if you keep
|
