Title: Oakie Boogie

---------------------



Now listen here friends, I wanna tell you

About a brand new dance that you gotta learn to do

It's called the oakie boogie, you do it oakie style

That mean oakie boogie is bound to drive you wild

Well it's gotta be fast, now you can't go slow

When you hear that rhythm, Lord you gotta do-si-do

When you do the oakie boogie, and do it oakie style

That mean oakie boogie is bound to drive you wild



Now ol' man Mose on a cane and a crutch

Tried to do the oakie boogie just a little too much

He tried to overdo it, Oklahoma style

That mean oakie boogie is bound to drive you wild

When you get started it's hard to stop

If you don't look out, you're gonna blow your top

When you do the oakie boogie, and do it oakie style

That mean oakie boogie is bound to drive you wild



Well it's gotta be fast, now you can't go slow

When you hear that rhythm, Lord you gotta do-si-do

When you do the oakie boogie, and do it oakie style

That mean oakie boogie is bound to drive you wild

When you get started it's hard to stop

If you don't look out, you're gonna blow your top

When you do the oakie boogie, and do it oakie style

That mean ol' oakie boogie and let her drive you wild



Now you got the beat, I'll tell you what to do

Grab your partner and follow on through

Let's do the oakie boogie, Oklahoma style

That mean ol' oakie boogie drives everybody wild
