rate me

<br>

Gloria :I never wanna hear Johann Sebastian Bach<br>

June :And I don't wanna listen to Ludwig Beethoven<br>

Nancy :And I don't give a hoot for all Johannes Brahms<br>

All : The B's we want are these (2)<br>

June :They're the barrelhouse<br>

The boogie-woogie <br>

Gloria :And the blues.<br>

Chorus : Yes, the barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie and the blues!<br>

June :Oh, the barrelhouse makes you want to carol<br>

Nancy :Every boogie beat will raise your heat<br>

Gloria :When they start to play the blues<br>

All : You'll never choose to lose the blues.<br>

Gloria :Oh, the blues will really get you<br>

June :And the barrelhouse is bound to upset you<br>

Nancy :And the boogie-woogie beat will drive you straight to distraction<br>

Hey, let's go professor, get a solid reaction!<br>

From a barrelhouse<br>

The boog-boog-boog-boog boogie and the blues<br>

Chorus : Yes, the barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie and the blues.<br>

All : When a Dixieland band gets up on the stand<br>

You'll hear the trombones slide and start to ride<br>

So make 'em play those dirty<br>

Dirty hurdy-gurdy barrelhouse, boogie and blues<br>

The barrelhouse, boogie and blues<br>

The barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie and the blues<br>

Chorus : (snip)<br>

We're up a tree now<br>

We don't know which to choose<br>

The barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie or the blues<br>

Nancy :I love the boogie coz it tickles my spine<br>

I love the boogie coz it's fresh and it's fine<br>

Just like a cigarette with modern design<br>

That's why I love the boogie-woogie.<br>

Chorus : Yes, yes!<br>

Nancy :It seems to knock the wind right out of my chest<br>

It's so darn good it makes a fool of the rest<br>

Just goes to show you that the boogie's the best<br>

That's why I love the boogie-woogie.<br>

Chorus : Yes! Yes!<br>

Nancy :It's right as rain<br>

Low as a thunder<br>

Light as a cloud<br>

Sweet as a cake<br>

It's got a kick like mountain liquor<br>

And it's as slick and hard<br>

To take as Veronica Lake.<br>

It picks you up and then knocks you right down<br>

It makes you laugh and play and act like a clown.<br>

No other music has the right to the crown<br>

Coz there's nothing that will raise your heat<br>

Like the boogie-woogie beat<br>

June :Don't mean the barrelhouse<br>

Nancy :Like the boogie-woogie beat<br>

Gloria :Don't mean the blues<br>

Nancy :I love the boogie-woogie beat!<br>

Gloria :I love the boogie too<br>

But not when I'm feeling blue<br>

I get the blues in the mornin'<br>

The blues at night<br>

I even get the blues when I'm feelin' all right<br>

Coz it sounds so good<br>

And it feels so good<br>

And it is so good<br>

My best jazz music there is.<br>

June :I love the blues as well<br>

But not when I'm feeling swell<br>

When I'm feeling kind of chummy<br>

And I wanna join the scrummy<br>

I go barrelhouse, barrelhouse ---<br>

The atmosphere is squalid<br>

But the band is really solid<br>

They play barrelhouse, barrelhouse<br>

They really go to town.<br>

The beat is steady as a rock there<br>

They play till 5 or 6 o' clock there<br>

You'll be mighty glad you found 'em<br>

It's great to be around 'em<br>

Oh they sock it, beat it, kill it --<br>

The barrelhouse will make you ---<br>

On jazz.<br>

All : It's the barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie and the blues<br>

That's the barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie and the blues<br>

(Chorus)<br>

Talkin' about those three B's (3)<br>

1, 2, 3 B's.<br>

1, 1-2, 1-2-3 B's.<br>

<br>
