Barry Manilow - Jump Shout Boogie Lyrics
Well not to long ago in 1944When every mothers son was goin' off to warThey had to lift there spirits highFor Uncle Sam ,mother hood and apple pieInstead of spendin' money that they didn't haveIn hot spots in the BronxThey went to here the kind of jazzYou hear in funky hunky tonks[Chorus:]It made you wannaJump! shout! knock your self outThe bogie-wogie beat is what I'm talkin' aboutIf you have the heebie jeebies you can dance awayTo the bogie-wogie music the piano man was playin'And you could jump, shout, knock yourself outThe boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talking aboutYou could pull a switcheroonie if you felt low downWith the boogie-woogie beat of a piano man who's going to townIt had the kind of rhythm that would fill the hallThe plinkin' and the pluckin' drove 'em off the wallAnd they would dance and drink their ginAnd when the fuzz, buzzed they joined inSo everybody partied 'till the cows came home'cause that's what boggie's forAnd everynight that dump will jumpAnd keepem' coming back for moreBecause they make you wanna....[Chorus]It made you wanna jump, shoutWho wanna jump! shoutYou wanna jump! shoutTo the boogie-woogie music the piano man was playin'You could jump! shout! knock yourself outThe boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talking aboutYou could pull a switcharoonie if your felt low downTo the boogie-woogie beat of piano (laughter)Shake it yes, yes, yes [8x]
