Don't Boogie Woogie |
I was feelin' kind of poorly, hadn’t been lookin' too fine |
I just had to found out what was ailin' this old body of mine |
So I went to my family doctor |
To get my temperature and set me straight |
And the first thing he did was to tell me |
To quit eatin' every good thing I ate |
And he told old Jerry Lee to stop smokin' |
Lay off of that beer and whiskey |
He said, son you gonna have to have a little help |
And confidentially he looked at Jerry Lee |
He shook his head, and then he said |
Like a friend he took my hand and he said: |
Don’t boogie woogie when you say your prayers tonight |
(Don't boogie woogie, don’t boogie woogie) |
Son, you can’t boogie woogie when you send your prayers tonight |
(Don't boogie woogie, don’t boogie woogie) |
Jerry Lee, you been over-rockin', you know that it ain’t right |
You better turn on Jesus when you switch out the light |
Don’t boogie woogie when you say your prayers tonight |
(Don't boogie woogie, don’t boogie woogie) |
He wired me up like spaceman and he turned on the cardiograph |
The needle went out of sight, the doc turned white |
He called in his entire staff |
And he cried out in disbelief |
Told the killer with staring conviction |
He said, if you don’t live right son |
You’re gonna die of cholesterol constriction |
He looked at me, he shook his head |
Here’s a perspective that I think you’re gonna dread |
You can’t boogie woogie when you say your prayers tonight |
(Don't boogie woogie, don’t boogie woogie) |
You can’t do it, you can’t do it son, it ain’t right |
(Don't boogie woogie, don’t boogie woogie) |
You better quit rockin' boy, you know it ain’t right |
You better turn on Jesus when you switch off the light |
Don’t boogie woogie when you say your prayers tonight |
(Don't boogie woogie, don’t boogie woogie) |
Wow, give it to me now! |
(Don't boogie woogie, don’t boogie woogie) |
(Don't boogie woogie, don’t boogie woogie) |
(Don't boogie woogie, don’t boogie woogie) |
(Don't boogie woogie, don’t boogie woogie) |
Oh, don’t boogie woogie when you say your prayers tonight |
(Don't boogie woogie, don’t boogie woogie) |
You can’t boogie woogie when you say your prayers tonight |
(Don't boogie woogie, don’t boogie woogie) |
Son, you been over-rockin' and you know that it ain’t right |
You better turn on Jesus when you switch out the light |
Don’t boogie woogie when you say your prayers tonight |
