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
ย
I didn't care what she didn't love
I would slip out anyhow
ย
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
ย
Just chilling
ย
One night, I was layin' down
ย
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
