Okie Boogie (1952) Songtext
von Ella Mae Morse

Now listen here, friends, I wanna tell you
′Bout a brand new dance that you gotta learn to do
It's called the okie boogie, you do it okie style
That mean old okie boogie is bound to drive you wild
Well, it′s gotta be fast, you can't go too slow
If you hear that rhythm you got to dosey-doe
When you do the okie boogie and do it okie style
That mean old okie boogie is bound to drive you wild
Old Man Mose, on a cane and a crutch
Tried to do the okie boogie just a little too much
For he tried to overdo it, Oklahoma style
That mean old okie boogie is bound to drive you wild
When you get started it's hard to stop
If you don′t watch out you′re gonna blow your top


When you do the okie boogie and do it okie style
That mean old okie boogie drives everybody wild
When you get the beat I'll tell you what to do
Just grab your partner and follow on through
Let′s do the okie boogie and do it okie style
That mean old okie boogie drives everybody wild
Well, it's gotta be fast, you can′t go too slow
If you hear that rhythm you got to dosey-doe
When you do the okie boogie and do it okie style
That mean old okie boogie is bound to drive you wild
When you get the beat I'll tell you what to do
Just grab your partner and follow on through
Let′s do the okie boogie and do it okie style
That mean old okie boogie drives everybody wild
