Down around the corner in a little school
Children learn their lessons and the golden rule
'Cause they got a teacher up from Basin Street
And she does her teaching with a boogie beat
Teachin' the ABC with rhtyhtm and E
Every single morning, it's the same old thing
All the

Bah-bah-bah-bah, bah-bah-bah-bah
Bah-bah-bah-bah. bah-bah-bah-bah, at the hop!

Well, you can rock it you can roll it
You can stop and you can stroll it at the hop
When the record starts spinnin'
You chalypso when you chicken at the hop
Do the dance sensation that

Boogie, boogie woogie
The boogie-woogie-woogie beat
Down in Africa, many years ago
There lived a little fella named Zulu Joe
He took his tom-tom, a great big stick
And that was the birth of the boogie lick
Birth of the boogie, birth of the boogie
Birth of the b

Well, it's one for the money, two for the show,
Three to get ready, now go, cat, go
But don't you step on my blue suede shoes
You can do anything but lay off
Of my blue suede shoes

Well, you can knock me down, step in my face,
Slander my name all over the place

Keep that candle burnin' bright, mother
I'll be kinda late tonight, mother
There's a yellow moon above, mother
Shinin' on the one I love, mother

Burn that candle, night and day
Burn that candle, light our way
Keep that doorway open wide
Until we come slowly strollin

Headin' for the station with a pack on my back
I'm tired of transportation in the back of my hack
I love to hear the rhythm of the clickety clack
And hear the lonesome whistle see the smoke from the stack

To pal around with democratic fellows named mac
So take me right back

Crazy man crazy

Man that music's gone, gone

I said crazy man crazy

When I go out and I want a treat
I find me a band with a solid beat

As I was walkin' down the street,
Down the street, down the street,
I met somebody who was mighty sweet,
Mighty fair to see.
I asked her would she like to have a talk,
Have a talk, make some talk,
All the fellows standin' on the walk
Wishin' they were me:
Mama, Ma

Oh, what a crazy party, all the gang's here too
The beat is really jumping like a kangaroo
I'm full of cherry soda and potato chips
But now I want to get a taste of your sweet lips

So dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)

In the state of carolina?
If there is and you know her,

How I love to sit and gaze in
To the eyes of dinah lee!

Well every night,
Why do I,
Shake with fright,

Verse 1:
Came from tha boogie down,
Straight to Agg-town
Hat drop it low,
That's how I choose to roll now,
Had to leave the mall,

No need to go home,
Cause my night ain't fully over now,
Wherever my car stops,

Pace the floor, stop and stare
I drink a cup of coffee
Start to pulling out my hair

I drink forty cups of coffee
Forty cups of coffee
Forty cups of coffee
Waiting for you to come home

A quarter to twelve
And you're still not in
The way you run around

A slick little chick and she treats me tenderly (happy baby)

Cold as a codfish, hot as a coal
Hot dog buddy, well bless my soul

Hot dog buddy buddy, a hot dog all the time

When I hear music I'll holler hot dog
I'm a-rockin', rockin' on down the li

Well I saw my baby walkin',
With another man today,
Well I saw my baby walkin'
With another man today.
When I asked her "What's the matter?"
This is what I heard her say.

Chorus:

After 'while, crocodile.
See you later alligator,

Get out in that kitchen
And rattle those pots and pans
Get out in that kitchen
And rattle those pots and pans
Well, roll my breakfast
'Cause I'm a hungry man

I said, shake, rattle and roll
I said, shake, rattle and roll
Well, you'll never do nothing
To save
