Boogie Blues

Now's the time when things are hot

To show the world just what you've got

Just grab a partner,hit the floor

'Cause this is what you're waiting for

It's time for us to take a chance

So get on up,got out and dance

Just shout it out and spread the news

About those low-down Boogie blues

Now The Boogie Blues is nothin' new

It started back in '22

Some guys and girls were sittin' 'round

In a little club outside of town

In walked a dude from parts unknown

Without a friend,he was all alone

Dressed up in tails and button shoes

He taught them all The Boogie Blues

I've got a dance you ought to know

It's no too fast and not too slow

It's not to hard and not too easy

Not too straight and not too sleazy

Something different,something new

Something special just for you

Something just to rock your shoes

Something called The Boogie Blues

The Boogie Blues has got the beat

The Boogie Blues will move your feet

Feel the beat and spread the new

About those low-down Boogie Blues

The dude got up to whirl and dance

Just like a dervish in a trance

Spinning,twirling,up and down

Round and round and round and round

Just like Bojangles or Astaire

A dapper dude without a care

With flying feet,top hat and cane

You knew he only drank champagne

Just watching him would keep you busy

Make you feel a little dizzy

Such a sight for all to see

The Boogie Blues done to a "T"

Leaping high and doing splits

The crowd was simply having fits

They cheered until their throats were dry

But soon he had to say goodbye

I've had a ball the stranger said

But I should quit while I'm ahead

Those splits and leaps are hard to do

They really take it out of you

But in a minute when I am gone

The night is young,it's far from dawn

You've seen the dance,you've heard the news

It's time to do The Boogie Blues

The Boogie Blues has got the beat

The Boogie Blues will move your feet

Feel the beat and spread the news
