Testo Born to Boogie - Carl Perkins
Testo della canzone Born to Boogie (Carl Perkins), tratta dall'album Born to Boogie
I was born in a shack in West Tennessee
I picked that cotton down on my knee
The sun got hotter each and every day
But me and my brothers kept a-picking away
Seemed like the sun would never go down
So we could clap our hands and gather around
And do the boogie (boogie)
Yeah, I learned the rhythm (boogie woogie rhythm)
And it wasn't very long 'til I was doing the boogie woogie rhythm
Mhm
Well, I prayed all week for Saturday night
Turned my back on the sun and put the sack out of sight
Took a long dusty road into town
My feet kept the rhythm as I walked the hot ground
Nothing good could keep me from my favorite spot
Where the chicks were a-waiting and the music was hot
Born to boogie (boogie)
Whoo, Lord, I got the rhythm (boogie woogie rhythm)
And it wasn't very long 'til I done the boogie woogie rhythm
Like this I did the boogie
Yeah, cut that guitar to the bone
Go, cat, go
Well, the Monday morning was always bad
But it was worth it all for the time I had
Lordy, Lordy, how I wish it would rain
Mister sun, have mercy on a country boy's pain
But I'll make believe everything's alright
Gonna do it again come Saturday night
I do the boogie (boogie)
Yeah, yeah, with lots of rhythm (boogie woogie rhythm)
Lord, I learned to move by doing that boogie woogie rhythm
And like this I did the boogie
I learned the boogie
Yeah, yeah, born to boogie
Ooh, born to boogie
Yeah, born to boogie
Pull a rhythm, go, cat
Get it, get it, huh
Two, three, four
Yes, I said born to boogie
One more time, born to boogie
Ooh, born to boogie, man
Yeah, born to boogie
Mmm, alright
One more time, now get it
Go, cat
