Boogie Children Lyrics

Well, my mother allowed me
She had to stay out all night long, oh Lord
Well, my mother allowed me
She had to stay out all night long
I didn′t care what she didn't ′low
I would boogie anyhow

When I was walkin' the 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 children

One night, I was layin' down
I heard mama and papa talkin′
I heard papa tell mama
"Let that boy boogie-woogie
It's in him, and it got to come out"
And I felt so good
Went on boogie just the same
