Down in Boogie Alley Songtext
von Lucille Bogan

Way down in Boogie Alley
Ain′t nothin' but skulls and bones
Way down in Boogie Alley
Ain′t nothin' but skulls and bones
And when I get drunk, who's goin′ to take me home?
I′m goin' to stop my man from runnin′ around
I'm goin′ to stop my man from runnin' around
′Cause down in Boogie Alley is where he can be found


He goes down in Boogie Alley, house number three
He goes down in Boogie Alley, house number three
And when he gets down there, the women won't let him come to see me
I went down in Boogie Alley with my razor in my hand
I went down in Boogie Alley with my razor in my hand

And the blues struck me, I brought back my man
If you go in Boogie Alley, you better take your .44
If you go in Boogie Alley, you better take your .44
The women will get your man down there, and they won't let him go
