Merles Boogie Woogie by Merle Travis Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 1947

'Bout twelve o'clock, gonna close the door
Can't nobody come or nobody go

I got a boogie woogie feeling
Had it all night long
When I get that feeling
My mama won't let me come home

Well, I got a little gal with great big legs
Walks like she's walking on soft boiled eggs

I got a boogie woogie feeling
Had it all night long
When I get that feeling
My mama won't let me come home

There's two kind of people I just can't stand
A lying woman and a sneaking man

I got a boogie woogie feeling
Had it all night long
When I get that feeling
My mama won't let me come home
Now what did the rat say to the mouse
I wanna see you down at my house

I got a boogie woogie feeling
Had it all night long
When I get that feeling
My mama won't let me come home

Six times six is thirty six
Ain't a gonna hit but six more licks

I got a boogie woogie feeling
Had it all night long
When I get that feeling
My mama can't keep me home

Got a boogie woogie feeling
And my mama can't keep me home
