Paul Davis — Boogie Woogie Man lyrics

Lyrics

Get yourself a crew cut
Your hair’s too long
I hear it over and over
And over again
The language you speak
Is way too strong
I hear it over and over
And over again
I bought a brand new guitar
And I’m so proud
I play it over and over
And over again
I can’t play good
But I play it loud
Now turn it down, turn it down
Son, you got to turn it down
I hear it over and over
And over again
Everybody’s telling me What I oughta be A doctor or a lawyer
But I need a degree
That good old rock and roll’s
Got a hold on me Why can’t everybody see
I just wanna be A boogie woogie man
Do the best that I can
To make a living
By giving my songs
Yeah, a boogie woogie man
With the boogie woogie dance
Singing boogie woogie
All night long
Now my mama and my daddy
Say that I can’t sing
I hear it over and over
And over again
But all the little girls
Like the way I scream
I hear it over and over
And over again
Yeah, everybody’s telling me What I oughta be A doctor or a lawyer
But I need a degree
That good old rock and roll’s
Got a hold on me Why can’t everybody see
I just wanna be Why can’t everybody see
I just wanna be A boogie woogie man
Do the best that I can
To make a living
By giving my songs
Yeah, a boogie woogie man
With the boogie woogie dance
Singing boogie woogie
All night long
I hear it over and over
And over and over again
