| I remember the night
|
| You told me we were through
|
| That you were no longer mine
|
| And I did not belong to you
|
| You said, «I'm leavin' town,
|
| I’m puttin' you down,
|
| 'Goin back to Memphis with the new boy I found
|
| But honey, you sure look cute
|
| In your fine blue gabardine suit»
|
| I remember the day
|
| You took me by the hand
|
| You said that you were mine
|
| And «I'm gonna let you be my man
|
| Get your money, honey
|
| I know what to do Today I saw the perfect blue color for you
|
| And honey, you’ll look so cute
|
| In your brand new gabardine suit»
|
| And we’ll go…
|
| CHORUS:
|
| Blue suit boogie
|
| Jumpin' and-a-jivin' across the floor
|
| Blue suit boogie
|
| Reelin' and-a-rockin' til a quarter to four
|
| Blue Suit Boogie
|
| Jumpin' and-a-swingin' across the floor
|
| Just you and me Swingin' in my gabardine
|
| Well, it’s been six months
|
| And I haven’t gone swingin' at all
|
| I spend my nights cryin'
|
| While my blue suit hangs in the hall
|
| But I woke up this morning
|
| With a sweet smile on my face
|
| I think my broken heart
|
| Will finally find a restin' place
|
| 'Cause the girl I met today
|
| Is so reet petite
|
| So sweet and lovely, and light on her feet
|
| She says, «Honey, you sure look cute
|
| In your fine blue gabardine suit»
|
| And we’ll go…
|
| (CHORUS) |
