BOOGIE WOOGIE BUGLE BOY／Bette Midler 歌詞

歌：Bette Midler

作詞：PRINCE HUGHIE　作曲：RAYE DON

He was
a famous trumpet man
from out Chicago way
He had a boogie style
that no one else
could play
He was the top man
at his craft
But then his number
came up
and he was gone
with the draft
He's in the army now
a-blowin' reveille
He's the boogie woogie
bugle boy of Company B
They made him
blow a bugle
for his Uncle Sam
It really
brought him down
because he could not jam
The Captain seemed
to understand
Because the next day
the cap
went out
and drafted a band
And now
the company jumps
When he plays reveille
He's the boogie woogie
bugle boy of Company B
A-root a-toot
a-toot-aly-ada-toot
He blows it
eight to the bar
in boogie rhythm
He can't blow a note
unless the
bass and guitar
is playing with him
And the company jumps
when he plays reveille
He's the boogie woogie
bugle boy of Company B
He was
some boogie woogie
bugle boy of Company B
And when he plays
boogie woogie bugle
He was busy
as a busy bee
And when he played
he made
the company jump
Eight to the bar
He's the boogie woogie
bugle boy of Company B
E-ladda-toot-aly-ada
toot-aly-ada
toot-toot
He blows eight to the bar
He can blow a note
If a bass and guitar is
with him
And the company jumps
when he plays reveille
He's the boogie woogie
bugle boy of Company B
Solo 15 sec.
He puts the boys to sleep
with boogie every night
And wakes them up
the same way
In the early bright
They clap their hands
and stamp their feet
'Cause they know
how he blows
When someone gives him
the beat,
Whoa, whoa
He makes it up
when he plays reveille
The boogie woogie bugle
boy of Company B
A-root, a-toot
a-toot-aly-ada-toot
Toot, toot he blows it
eight to the bar
Can't blow a note
without bass and guitar
whoa, with him
And the company jumps
when he plays reveille
He's the boogie woogie
bugle boy of Company B
