I got a bagful of boogie and a pocketfull of rythm and blues
I got a bagful of boogie and a pocketfull of rythm and blues
Been walking round in this old town so long I got holes in both of my shoes
Just a country boy from the state of Ilinois I tried to find my way
Just a redneck kid with a gitaar and a pick
Want to try my luck in Hollywood L.A.
Living in the city looking at the moviestars
While they drivin down sunsetstrip in there big old shinin' cars
I'm standing on the corner thinking of the folks I left behind
I got a bagful of boogie and a pocketfull of rythm and blues
I got a bagful of boogie and a pocketfull of rythm and blues
Been walking round in this old town so long I got holes in both of my shoes
Solo
Just a good old boy with my bagful of joy
And not one red cent to my name
So I keep on living just a taken and a giving
Little Henry said its really all the same
But I keep on trying to play the blues Ive been crying
Want give up till I have won the game
I'm out on the street with my little old boogiebeat
to ease the pain
I got a bagful of boogie and a pocketfull of rythm and blues
I got a bagful of boogie and a pocketfull of rythm and blues
Been walking round in this old town so long I got holes in both of my shoes
Been walking round in this old town so long I got holes in both of my shoes
Been walking round in this old town so long I got holes in both of my shoes
