A#7        D#
Now if you wanna hear some boogie like I'm gonna play
It's just an old piano and a knockout bass
     G#
The drummer man's a cat they call Kickin' McCoy
D#
And I know you remember that ole rubber-legged boy?
    A#
an' Mama's cookin' chicken fried in bacon grease
     D#
Come on along boys it's just down the road apiece

Now there's a place you really get your kicks
It's open every night from about twelve to six
And if you want to get some boogie you can get your fill
And shove and sting to you like an old steam drill
Come on along you can lose your lead
Down the road, down the road, down the road apiece

Now there's a place you really get your kicks
It's open every night from about twelve to six
And if you want to get some boogie you can get your fill
And shove and sting to you like an old steam drill
Come on along you can lose your lead
Down the road, down the road, down the road apiece
