Lyrics

Well, my mama didn't 'llow me
Just to stay out all night long, oh Lord
Well, my mama didn't 'llow me
Just to stay out all night long
I didn't care what she didn't 'low
I would boogie-woogie anyhow
When I first came to town people
I was walkin' down Hastings Street
Everybody was talkin' about
The Henry Swing Club
I decided I drop in there that night
When I got there
I say, "Yes, people"
They was really havin' a ball
Yes, I know
Boogie Chillun
One night I was layin' down
I heard mama 'n papa talkin'
I heard papa tell mama
"Let that boy boogie-woogie
It's in him, and it got to come out"
And I felt so good
And I went on boogie'n just the same
Written by: Bernard Besman, John Lee Hooker
