Oogie Woogie Boogie

Last month you were bright as the sun
Buying drinks for everyone
Joyrides and jukebox and sunset rooms
But now you’re down with a case of the blues


You gotta oogie woogie boogie
You gotta oogie woogie boogie
You gotta oogie woogie boogie
All night with me…


Awakened smiles seem so far away
pools of sorrow darken the day
but come here honey and hold me tight
‘cause I'm gonna make you feel alright


You gotta oogie woogie boogie
You gotta oogie woogie boogie
You gotta oogie woogie boogie
All night with me…


Romance, music and wilderness heat
death of sorrow and misery
I will tell you how this can be
so push your body right up against me


You gotta oogie woogie boogie
You gotta oogie woogie boogie
You gotta oogie woogie boogie
All night with me…


Racecars, boats and diamond rings
I ain’t talkin’ ‘bout those things
I’ll run my fingers through your hair
And where they go next I ain’t gonna share


You gotta oogie woogie boogie
You gotta oogie woogie boogie
You gotta oogie woogie boogie
All night with me…
