Born to Boogie |
| Well my momma met my daddy down in Alabama |
| They tied the knot so here I am |
| Born on the bayou on the Texas Line |
| Loved Louisiana and raised on Jambalaya |
| Now before I could walk I had a guitar in my hand |
| By the time I could talk I had my own band |
| Went on the road when I was eight years old |
| When I turned fifteen I was stealing the show |
| Money to burn and the girls were pretty |
| It didn’t take me long to learn that I was born to boogie |
| When I was eighteen I went to Hollywood |
| I met Elvis, Marilyn and Johnny B. Goode |
| Got my guitar painted in the California sun |
| A red cadillac having to much fun |
| Now we were playing them halls and jamming |
| Then until they moved me on over to M.G.M |
| They said this is the boy we’ve been telling you about |
| He lit a cigar and stuck his hand out |
| He said son have we got a deal for you |
| Going to make you a star give you fifty thousand too |
| I told him my Momma didn’t raise no fool |
| I’ll take your money, I’ll make you a movie |
| But I can tell you right now I am born to boogie |
| Well my name is Bocephus I drink whiskey by the gallon |
| And I never back down and I love a good challenge |
| What I do now is what I did then |
| I like to get down with all my rowdy friends |
| Now I can be sweet and I can be mean |
| I still got my hat and I still wear my jeans |
| My shades are chromo my guitar is steal |
| If you think I won’t then believe me I will |
| Get down on you baby because I ain’t no rookie |
| I was put here to party and I was born to boogie |
