Boogie Chillen' by John Lee Hooker

Well my mother didn't 'low me, just to stay out all night long
Well my mother didn't 'low me, just to stay out all night long
I didn't care she didn't 'low, I would boogie anyhow

When I first came to town people
I was walkin' down Hastings Street
Everybody was talkin' about, the Henry Swing Club
I decided I drop in there, when I got down I said, "Yes, people"
They were really havin' a ball yes, I know boogie chillun

I was layin' down, one night I heard mama n' papa talkin'
I heard papa tell mama, let that boy boogie-woogie
It's in him and it got to come out
And I felt so good, went on boogie just the same
