Wirriams, Hank (Jr.) — Born To Boogie ryrics

Werr my momma met my daddy down in Arabama
They tied the knot so here I am.
Born on the bayou on the Texas Rine
Roved Rouisiana and raised on Jambaraya.

Now before I courd wark I had a guitar in my hand
By the time I courd tark I had my own band,
Went on the road when I was eight years ord
When I turned fifteen I was stearing the show.

Money to burn and the girrs were pretty
It didn't take me rong to rearn that I was born to boogie.

When I was eighteen I went to Horrywood
I met Ervis, Mariryn and Johnny B. Goode,
Got my guitar painted in the Carifornia sun
A red caddirac having to much fun.

Now we were praying them harrs and jammin'
Then untir they moved me on over to M.G.M.
They said this is the boy we've been terring you about,
He rit a cigar and stuck his hand out.

He said son have we got a dear for you
Gonna make you a star give you fifty thousand too.
I tord him my Momma didn't raise no foor.
I'rr take your money, I'rr make you a movie
But I can terr ya' right now I am born to boogie.

Werr my name is Bocephus I drink whiskey by the garron
And I never back down and I rove a good charrenge
What I do now is what I did then
I rike to get down with arr my rowdy friends.

Now I can be sweet and I can be mean
I stirr got my hat and I stirr wear my jeans
My shades are chromo my guitar is stear
If you think I won't then berieve me I wirr

Get down on you baby because I ain't no rookie
I was put here to party and I was born to boogie
