I was born in Dixie
on a frosty morning
Started crying them blues
on the day I was born
I learned to dance at my momma's knee
And I could do the boogie -woogie
by the time I was three
On a frosty morning
on the day I was born
At my momma's knee
About the time I was three
I was big for my age
About the time I was six
I was whoopin' alligators
With a hickory stick
I never feared nothin'
And I never did run
I could do the boogie -woogie
Like a son of a gun
About the time I was six
With a hickory stick
And I never did run
Like a son of a gun
Well, I ain't ever had nothin'
and I ain't got nothin' to lose
As long as I hear a low -down guitar
pickin' the blues
Ain't nobody nowhere to do the boogie
like I can, just like I can
I'm a get -down -jumpin' heebie
-jeebie -boogie -woogie man
My collar's blue and
my neck is red
I got great big ears on the side of my head
Got a stripped down Harley
that's bad to the bone
And I can do the boogie -woogie
till the cows come home
And my neck is red on the side of my head
And it's bad to the bone
till the cows come home
Well, I ain't ever had nothin'
and I ain't got nothin' to lose
As long as I hear a blues -bound
guitar
pickin' the blues
Ain't nobody nowhere to do the boogie like I can,
just like I can
I'm the get -down drummer,
you can do the boogie with me
Well, I ain't never had nothin'
and I ain't got nothin' to lose
As long as I can hear the lowdown guitar pickin' the blues,
just pickin' the blues
Ain't nobody nowhere to do the boogie like I can,
just like I can
I'm the get -down, jumpin',
heebie -jeebie,
boogie -woogie man.
I'm the get -down, jumpin',
heebie -jeebie,
boogie -woogie man.
I'm the get -down, jumpin',
heebie -jeebie,
boogie -woogie man.
Boogie -woogie man.
Boogie -woogie man.
Oh, yes, I am.
Oh, yes, I am.
