Here's a little tune we're gonna play for you
There ain't nothin' to it and it's easy to do
Called the Calloway Boogie, it's the Calloway Boogie
Keeps you groovy twenty-four hours a day
If you like music with the boogie beat
Here's a little ditty that's really all reet
It's the Calloway Boogie, it's the Calloway Boogie
Keeps you groovy twenty-four hours a day
I woke up with the blues the other day
The cats started jamming and they blew away
With the Calloway Boogie, the Calloway Boogie
Keeps you groovy twenty-four hours a day
We play waltzes, bebop and jive
But here's the kind of music that keeps you alive
It's the Calloway Boogie, it's the Calloway Boogie
Keeps you groovy twenty-four hours a day
If you like boogie with some hi-de-ho
Just listen to me, here's the way it goes
Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi, ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho
Keeps you groovy twenty-four hours a day
