OFF-BEAT BOOGIE
(Roy Hall)
ROY HALL (NOT ORIGINALLY ISSUED, 1955)

Well, I got a gal, she's so good to me
The music is hot, she limbered up her knee
She does the off-beat boogie
She does the off-beat boogie
She does the off-beat boogie, oooh, all the time

Well, my gal boogied for Uncle Sam
Now she works in a honky tonk in Alabam
She does the off-beat boogie
She does the off-beat boogie
She does the off-beat boogie, oooh, all the time

Well, last time I seen her, she boogied down the road
She boogied that night and the night before
She done the off-beat boogie
She's doin' the off-beat boogie
She does the off-beat boogie, baby, all the time

(I'm gonna show you how it's done now)

You throw you right foot out, throw your left foot back
Throw your arms straight up and holler: "oowh watch out!"
It's the off-beat boogie
It's the off-beat boogie
You do the off-beat boogie, baby, do it all night long

Well, you boogie to the east, you boogie to the west
You boogie in the place where you boogie the best
You do the off-beat boogie
Well, the off-beat boogie
You do the off-beat boogie, oooh, all the time

Now you boogie uptown, you boogie downtown
You boogie-boogie-boogie-boogie all around
Off-beat boogie
You do the off-beat boogie
You do the off-beat boogie, oooh, all the time
