Now you know songs about love and being weird
I wanna love and nice
But every now and then
You need to get down
So we're gonna take you down to the swamps

If you ever go down to Baton Rouge
And find yourself at midnight with nothing to do
Go back to the dark wood
Just outside of town
There's a place where everybody knows how to get down

Hey, hey, hey, it's allright
They're doing a swamp boogie in the night, uh

The swampers get around you and show you the style
Something 'bout the nighttime that makes you go "wow"
A lady by the campfire begins to chant
Perhaps you start to do a mocassin dance

Hey, hey, hey, it's allright
They're doing a swamp boogie in the night

Everybody was shouting and stomping around
When you get the fever you got to get down
By your music working like a chomp
Come on everybody it can't do you no harm

Hey, hey, hey, it's allright
They're doing a swamp boogie in the night
Hey, hey, hey, it's allright
They're doing a swamp boogie in the night
They're doing it
