Lyrics
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
