Barry Manilow Jump Should Boogie Lyrics

Jump Should Boogie Lyrics

Well not to long ago in nineteen forty-four

When every mother's son was
goin' off to war

They had to lift they spirits high (High!)

For
Uncle Sam, motherhood and apple pie

Instead of spendin' money that they
didn't have

In hot spot in the Bronx

They went to hear the kinf of
jazz

You hear in funky honky-tonks



It made you wanna

Jump, shout, knock yourself out

Boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talkin'
about

If you had the heebie-jeebies you could dance away

To the
boogie-woogie music the piano man was playin'

You could jump, shout,
knock yourself out

Boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talkin' about

You
could pull a switcheroonie if you felt low down

With the boogie-woogie
beat of a piano man who's goin' to town



It had the kind of rhythm
that would fill the hall

The plinkin' and the plunkin' drove 'em up the
wall

Then they would dance and drink their gin

And when the fuzz
buzzed they'd join in

So everybody partied 'till the cows came home

'Cause that's what boogie's for

And every night that dump would
jump

And keep 'em comin' back for more



Because it made you
wanna

Jump, shout, knock yourself out

Boogie-woogie beat is what
I'm talkin' about

If you had the heebie-jeebies you could dance away

To the boogie-woogie music the piano man was playin'

You could jump,
shout, knock yourself out

Boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talkin'
about

You could pull a switcheroonie if you felt low down

With the
boogie-woogie beat of a piano man who's goin' to town



It made you
wanna

Jump, shout

(Foo-der-acka-sacki)

Wanna jump, shout

(Slip the talcum to me Malcom)

You wanna jump, shout

(Floy-doy,
floy-doy)

To the boogie-woogie music the piano man was playin'

And
you could jump, shout, knock yourself out

Boogie-woogie beat is what I'm
talkin' about

You could pull a switcheroonie if you felt low down

To the boogie-woogie beat of a piano man who's goin' to town



Shake it, yes, yes, yes
