I was a city child with a dead-end smile |
|
And a worm's-eye point of view |
|
Oh I knew my way, I was a back-street stray |
|
And I had my eyes on you |
|
Now I got this friend and he's a screwdriver-jiver |
|
You know, some kinda automobeat on the street |
|
And he has converted me to rock'n'roll |
|
I just wanna dance to |
|
Honaloochie boogie yeah |
|
Get in time, don't worry 'bout the shirt shine |
|
Honaloochie boogie yeah |
|
You sure started somethin' |
|
Now my hair gets longer as the beat gets stronger |
|
Wanna tell Chuck Berry my news |
|
I get my kicks outta guitar licks |
|
And I've sold my steel-toed shoes |
|
Now I got this friend and he's a spider west-sider |
|
You know, he's hung up on a protection rejection thing |
|
But I have made him see the light |
|
He just wanna dance to |
|
Honaloochie boogie yeah |
|
Get in time, don't worry 'bout the shirt shine |
|
Honaloochie boogie yeah |
|
You sure started somethin' |
|
Honaloochie boogie yeah |
|
Get in time, don't worry 'bout the shirt shine |
|
Honaloochie boogie yeah |
|
You sure started somethin' |
