Walkin' The Boogie - Alternate Take
Well, my mother allowed me
She had to run around all night long, oh Lord
Well, my mother allowed me
She had to run around all night long, oh Lord
I didn't care what she didn't love
I would slip out anyhow
When I was walkin' the town, people
I was walkin' down the old street
I hear everybody was talkin' about the club in Liston
I decided I drop in there that night
When I got there, I say, "Yes", people
They was really havin' a ball
Just chilling
One night, I was layin' down
I always hear mama and papa talkin'
He thought I was asleep when I've woken
I heard papa tell mama
"Let that boy boogie-woogie
Because it's in him, and it sure got to come out"
And I felt so good
Went on boogie just the same, oh-oh
She had to run around all night long, oh Lord
Well, my mother allowed me
She had to run around all night long, oh Lord
I didn't care what she didn't love
I would slip out anyhow
When I was walkin' the town, people
I was walkin' down the old street
I hear everybody was talkin' about the club in Liston
I decided I drop in there that night
When I got there, I say, "Yes", people
They was really havin' a ball
Just chilling
One night, I was layin' down
I always hear mama and papa talkin'
He thought I was asleep when I've woken
I heard papa tell mama
"Let that boy boogie-woogie
Because it's in him, and it sure got to come out"
And I felt so good
Went on boogie just the same, oh-oh
