Well my momma met my daddy down in Alabama |
|
They tied the knot so here I am |
|
Born on the bayou on the Texas Line |
|
Loved Louisanana and raised on Jabalaya |
|
Now before I could walk I had a guitar in my hand by the time I could talk I had my own band |
|
Went on the road when I was eight years old when I turned fifteen I was stealing the show |
|
Money to burn and the girls were pretty it didn't take me long to learn that I was born to boogie |
|
When I was eighteen I went to Hollywood I met Elvis, Marilyn and Johnny B. Goode |
|
Got my guitar painted in the California sun a red caddilac having to much fun |
|
Now we were playing them halls and jammin' then until they moved me on over to M.G.M |
|
They said this is the boy we've been telling you about, he lit a cigar and stuck his hand out |
|
He said son have we got a deal for you gonna make you a star give you fifty thousand too |
|
I told him my Momma didn't raise no fool |
|
I'll take your money, I'll make you a movie |
|
But I can tell ya' right now I am born to boogie |
|
Well my name is Bocephus I drink whiskey by the gallon and I never back down and I love a good chall |
|
What I do now is what I did then I like to get down with all my rowdy friends |
|
Now I can be sweet and I can be mean I still got my hat and I still wear my jeans |
|
My shades are chromo my guitar is steal if you think I won't then believe me I will |
|
Get down on you baby because I ain't no rookie I was put here to party and I was born to boogie |
