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
Everybody was 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 and papa talkin'
It's in him and it got to come out

And i felt so good
Went on boogien' just the same
