| Well, you get a couple nickels and you put one in
|
| You lever up the ball and then you grab the pin
|
| You pull it back a little and you let her roll
|
| The rhythm of your body keeps it under control
|
| You do the pinball boogie
|
| Woo, the pinball boogie
|
| Yes, the pinball boogie
|
| You rattle and shake it 'til it gets in the hole
|
| Now if you’re weak and hungry and you got no dough
|
| You spare yourself a dime and you forget your woes
|
| Split the dime in two and put a nickel in
|
| And shake it while you watch the little pinball spin
|
| You do the pinball boogie
|
| Woo, the pinball boogie
|
| Yes, the pinball boogie
|
| You rattle and shake it 'til it gets in the hole
|
| One night I had a chance to date a lovely girl
|
| I went into a joint to watch the pinball whirl
|
| I shook it and I took it for ten free games
|
| It wasn’t long 'til I forgot about that dame
|
| We did the pinball boogie
|
| Woo, the pinball boogie
|
| Yes, the pinball boogie
|
| You rattle and shake it 'til it gets in the hole
|
| Now, it’s kind fascinating just to watch it roll
|
| And mighty aggravating when you miss the hole
|
| So wobble it and wag it and you’ll learn the trick
|
| A boogie-woogie motion makes the scoreboard tick
|
| You do the pinball boogie
|
| Woo, the pinball boogie
|
| Yes, the pinball boogie
|
| You rattle and shake it 'til it gets in the hole
|
| You shake it, rattle it
|
| Shake it, rattle it
|
| Shake it 'til it gets in the hole |
