Well, my mama she didn′t 'low me
Just to stay out all night long, oh Lord
Well, my mama didn′t 'low me
Just to stay out all night long
I didn't care what she didn′t ′low
I would boogie-woogie anyhow
When I first came to town people
I was walkin' down Hastings Street
I got everybody talkin′ about the Henry Swing Club
I decided I drop in there that night
When I got there, I say, "Yes, people"
They was really havin' a ball!
Yes, I know
Boogie Chillen′
One night, I was layin' down
I heard mama ′n papa talkin'
I heard papa tell mama
Let that boy boogie-woogie
'Cause it′s in him, and it got to come out
Well, that felt so good
And I went on boogie′n just the same, yes
