Johnny Cash - Perkins Boogie lyrics

We were just a plain ol' hillbilly band
With a plain ol' country style
We never played the kind of
Songs that'd drive anybody wild
Played a railroad song with a stomping beat
We played a blues song, kinda slow and sweet
But the thing that knocked them
Off of their feet was, ooh-wee

When Luther played the boogie woogie
Luther played the boogie woogie
Luther played the boogie woogie
Luther played the boogie woogie
Luther played the boogie woogie
Luther played the boogie woogie
Luther played the boogie woogie
Luther played the boogie in the
Strangest kind of way play it strange!

Well, we did our best to
Entertain everywhere we'd go
We'd nearly wear our fingers off to
Give the folks a show
Played jumping jive to make 'em
Get in the groove
We played sad songs, real slow and smooth
But the only thing that'd
Make 'em move was, ooh-wee

When Luther played the boogie woogie
Luther played the boogie woogie
Luther played the boogie woogie
Luther played the boogie woogie

Luther played the boogie
