(V1)
There's a jumpin' joint down on Bourbon Street
Everything they play has a big time boogie beat
Let's buy a bottle baby and then jump and jive
Boogie till the sun comes up at quarter to five
(V2)
They play Pinetop Perkins and Memphis Slim,
You’ll want to tap your foot and dance again
When I hear eight-to-the- bar I can’t stand still
The way you shake it baby gives me such a thrill
(Chorus)
B-b-b, baby, boogie woogie with me
It’s a hip shakin’ way to set you free
B-b-b, boogie it’s not so hard to see
Why people love it, it comes naturally
B-b-b, baby, boogie on Bourbon Street
Movin’ and groovin’ to that solid beat
A boogie bump here and I feel the heat
B-b-b, baby boogie woogie with me
(V3)
Jump, stomp, kick off those dancin’ shoes
It’s the best way that I know to lose the blues
There’s nothing better and I don’t mean maybe
Then dancin’ the boogie woogie with you my baby
(Instrumental Bridge)
(Chorus)
B-b-b, baby, boogie woogie with me
It’s a hip shakin’ way to set you free
B-b-b, boogie it’s not so hard to see
Why people love it, it comes naturally
B-b-b, baby, boogie on Bourbon Street
Movin’ and groovin’ to that solid beat
A boogie bump here and I feel the heat
B-b-b, baby boogie woogie with me
(V4)
There’s nothing more fun in Bourbon Street land
Than dancing all night to a boogie woogie band
After we go back home from our long boogie night
We have one more boogie when we turn out the light
(Chorus)
B-b-b, baby, boogie woogie with me
It’s a hip shakin’ way to set you free
B-b-b, boogie it’s not so hard to see
Why people love it, it comes naturally
B-b-b, baby, boogie on Bourbon Street
Movin’ and groovin’ to that solid beat
A boogie bump here and I feel the heat
B-b-b, baby boogie woogie with me
