We were just a plain ol' hillbilly band with a plain ol' country style
We'd never played the kind of songs that'd drive anybody wild
Played a railroad song with a stompin' beat
We played a blues song kinda slow and sweet
But the thing that knocked 'em off of their feet was
Oooh-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)
[ Guitar ]
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 jumpin' 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
Oooh-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
[ Guitar ]
Now didn't Luther play the boogie strange?
