21 Boogie Lyrics


John Lee Hooker 21 Boogie

I'm goin' away, baby
But I will be comin' back
I'm goin' away, babe
But I will be comin' back
I'm twenty-one now, baby
An I sure can have my fun

Last night I was laying down
I heared papa tell mama
'That boy's twenty-one, now.'
'An he can have his fun.'

I was layin' there listenin' in bed, to myself
An I heared them, ev'ry word they said
An I felt so good
Kept on goin' my way

Ooh, Jump Jump, Jump, Jump!

Don't worry, baby
I sure heard the good news last night
Don't worry, baby
Heard the good news last night
Heard mama, papa tell
That I sure was twenty-one

My mama she heard it
Papa heard the same
Reason I boogie, can't help myself

I got to do the Boogie
I got to do the Boogie
I've got to do the Boogie
An I just can't help myself

(Guitar solo)
Spoken:
Look-a-here, now baby
Don't worry 'bout me
Can't be home at twelve o'clock
Cause I'm twenty-one, now
I can stay out all night long
An don't have to go home, until I get ready

I said, baby, baby, baby
Let's Boogie!
Let's Boogie Jump, awhile
