Cadillac Boogie--Jimmy Liggins & His Drops of Joy (1948)
I had to have a boogie when the woogie wouldn't wait
Bought me a long, black Cadillac eight.
It's all reet, solid streamlined
I'll joy-jump and Cadillac's on time
It's the Cadillac boogie, boogie woogie rolling along
Oog, oog, oog guy
Oog, oog, oog guy
Look out, gate, don't be late
This rovin’ cat's got a Cadillac eight
Air foam cushions and a modern design
V8 motor, body Fleetwood line
Keep rollin’, Jack, makin' time
That cat's purring, got eight kitten's cryin'
It's the Cadillac boogie, yes the Cadillac boogie
It's the Cadillac boogie, boogie woogie rolling along
Sportin' around town, want to make a date?
Get you a long, black Cadillac eight
Get to groovin', boy, ball on the scene
Gals will start jumpin, your money will be green
It's the Cadillac boogie, boogie woogie rolling along
Now that you have dug this Cadillac eight
Hep cat daddy don't mess no dates
Traveling man, cruisin' around
Pickin' up all the fine chicks in town
It's the Cadillac boogie, boogie woogie rollin' along
Roll the Boogie!
That’s all reet.
