Barry Manilow – Jump Shout Boogie Lyrics  Share

From Barry Manilow's album: This One's For You

Well not to long ago in 1944
When every mothers son was goin^, off to war
They had to lift there spirits high
For Uncle Sam ,mother hood and apple pie

Instead of spendin^, money that they didn^,t have
In hot spots in the Bronx
They went to here the kind of jazz
You hear in funky hunky tonks

[Chorus:]
It made you wanna
Jump! shout! knock your self out
The bogie-wogie beat is what I^,m talkin^, about
If you have the heebie jeebies you can dance away
To the bogie-wogie music the piano man was playin^,
And you could jump, shout, knock yourself out
The boogie-woogie beat is what I^,m talking about
You could pull a switcheroonie if you felt low down
With the boogie-woogie beat of a piano man who^,s going to town

It had the kind of rhythm that would fill the hall
The plinkin^, and the pluckin^, drove ^,em off the wall
[ Jump Shout Boogie lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/b/barry-manilow/jump-shout-boogie/ ]
And they would dance and drink their gin
And when the fuzz, buzzed they joined in
So everybody partied ^,till the cows came home
^,cause that^,s what boggie^,s for
And everynight that dump will jump
And keepem^, coming back for more
Because they make you wanna....

[Chorus]

It made you wanna jump, shout
Who wanna jump! shout
You wanna jump! shout
To the boogie-woogie music the piano man was playin^,
You could jump! shout! knock yourself out
The boogie-woogie beat is what I^,m talking about
You could pull a switcharoonie if your felt low down
To the boogie-woogie beat of piano (laughter)

Shake it yes, yes, yes [8x]
