Lyrics

Born in Mississippi
Don't know when
Delta rocked his cradle
The blues within
Daddy played the guitar
Told him: "Rock the blues"
The boy left for Memphis
To pay some dues
Something in the boy
Had to get out
You can't stop the boogie man
Can't stop the boogie man
You can't stop the boogie man
Nothin's gonna stop the boogie man
Up in Detroit
Hastings Street
Everybody danced
When they heard that beat
Boogie chillin'
Made history
So it began
His legacy
Didn't need a mouth
Made his own way
You can't stop the boogie man
You can't stop the boogie man
Can't stop the boogie man
Nothing's gonna stop the boogie man
You can't stop the boogie man
Can't stop the boogie man
Can't stop the boogie man
Nothing's gonna stop the boogie man
Heard the news
(Heard the news)
The other day
(The other day)
The boogie man
(The boogie man)
Passed away
(Passed away)
Changed the world
(Changed the world)
With his soul
(With his soul)
He left a child
(Left a child)
Called "Rock and Roll"
(Called "Rock and Roll")
He said: "When I'm gone
I won't be gone"
You can't stop the boogie man
Can't stop the boogie man
You can't stop the boogie man
Nothing's gonna stop the boogie man
Boogie-woogie all night long
Boogie, boogie
He said: "When I'm gone"
I won't be gone
'Cause I'm gon' still be boogieing"
Boogie all night long
Boogie
Oh, yeah
"The whole world will get boogie
When I'm gone
I won't be gone
'Cause I'm on boogieing"
