Glen Gray - Boogie Woogie Man Lyrics

Children, here's a story of a new kind of boogie man
And he doesn't scare you with an eerie scream
He's a leader of a solid ghost boogie-woogie band
And he makes them play on the beam

Every night when you're asleep, he starts with a rolling bass
And it's sure to put a nightmare in your dream
When he gets 'em in the groove, they all start to rock the place
'Cause he makes them play on the beam

No one knows who he is; anybody could be him
Folks who peek take a peek, and they claim they don't see him!
So if you hear a piano and there's nobody playing it
And it's playing boogie like nobody can
And it hits a rhythm and your feet start obeying it
Look out! It's the boogie-woogie man!

There's a tune that he plays; it's a tune that he made up
And the ghost union card that he carries is paid up
He's really from another world; he's out of this hemisphere
He's been sought by Pilot Vance and Charley Chan
If it's boogie-woogie music, he's likely to appear
Look out! It's the boogie-woogie man!

It's the boogie-woogie man!
It's the boogie-woogie man!
It's the boogie-woogie man!
