Merle’s Boogie Woogie Songtext
von Merle Travis

Bout twelve o′clock, gonna close the door
Can't nobody come, or nobody go
Got a boogie woogie feeling
Had it all night long
When I get that feeling
My momma won′t let me come home

Well I got a little girl, with great big legs
Walks like she's walking on soft boiled eggs
Got a boogie woogie feeling
Had it all night long
When I get that feeling
My momma won't let me come home


There′s two kind of people I just can′t stand
A lying woman, and a sneaking man
Got a boogie woogie feeling
Had it all night long
When I get that feeling
My momma 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 momma won′t let me come home

Six times six is thirty six
Ain't a gonna hit but six more licks
Got a boogie woogie feeling
Had it all night long
When I get that feeling
My momma can′t keep me home
Got a boogie woogie feeling
And momma can't keep me home
