Dr. John
Boogie Music
(Boogie music has a pretty sound)
(It might even turn your head around)
It might turn your head around

(When I heard it on the radio)
(You know I fell out on the floor)
You know you'll fall out on the floor

(It can lift you up) Yeah, now
(It won't drag you down)

We're talkin' about music
Sweet soul music
Once you get the feelin'
I'll bet you'll never lose it, aw, yeah

You can shake your head
And stomp your feet
Yeah, you boogie to the music, child
That can't be beat

Well, it will raise the dead, child
It will make a blind man see
Well, if you listen to the boogie
You can all be free
(Boogie music has a pretty sound)
(It might even turn your head around)
Yeah, it will turn your head around

(When I heard it on the radio)
(You know I fell out on the floor)
You know you'll fall out on the floor

(It can lift you up) Lift you up, pretty babe
(It won't drag you down) Aw, it won't bring you down
Yes, Lord
