Yeah I like to rock and I like to roll

Most of all darlin' I like to ball

Boogie feels good and good in my heart

Makes me so good I don't think I'll stop

When I get to feelin' good I shake my thing

I get to feelin' good forget about everything

I just get a booie deep down in my soul

I'm not afraid to react not afraid to let go

I'm from Detroit where the boogie was born

I been boogie'n since '51

Taught to me by a fellow named John

'Corner of brush in '51'

Say boogie baby

Don't be afraid get a little closer

You know what I mean

Yes I keep a woman because she has my child

I keep a girl she's got my child

Some of the things she does

Just make my mind go wild

I tell her back off sometimes she don't hear

I tell her : 'Get back baby'

Sometimes she won't hear

Then she gets a little push

I make my position clear

Look out baby

I'm like a train conductor baby

When it comes to my life

I'm like an airplane pilot darlin'

When it comes to my life

I kick you off my flight

If you keep on givin' me jive
