Poor Boy Boogie

Playing old-time boogie and a young one too

The old folks boogie like me and you

Ain't nobody boogie like a poor boy do

Everybody came travelling from miles around

We'd stop for the boogie, when the sun goes down

[?] shoes, like a poor boy do

They're all slipping and sliding

they got nothing to lose

They do the shim sham shimmy

[?] away those blues

So [?] for the boogie like a poor boy do

I heard papa tell mama, late last night

You're getting too old, for to do the thing right

So we ain't gonna boogie, with a broken light

You can and boogie, have yourself a ball

You can take it, you can break it, or hang it on the wall

You can take it to the top, or bop till it drops

Playing old-time boogie and a young one too

The old folks boogie like me and you

Ain't nobody boogie like a poor boy do
