Lyrics

[00:20] Well, my mama, she didn't 'low me
[00:25] just to stay out all night long, oh Lord
[00:37] Well, my mama didn't 'low me
[00:40] just to stay out all night long
[00:50] I didn't care what she didn't 'low
[00:52] I would boogie-woogie anyhow
[01:05] When I first came to town, people,
[01:09] I was walkin' down Hastings Street
[01:13] I heard everybody was talkin' about the Henry Swing Club
[01:20] I decided I drop in there that night
[01:23] And when I got there, I say, "Yes, people"
[01:28] They was really havin' a ball
[01:34] Yes, I know
[01:42] Boogie Chillen'
[02:14] One night I was layin' down
[02:17] I heard mama and papa talking'
[02:20] I heard papa tell mama let that boy boogie-woogie
[02:27] It's in him and it got to come out
[02:31] And I felt so good
[02:35] Went on boogiein' just the same
