C5
 Next to Lousiana on the Texas side 
          C5
There's a little country joint where they let it ride 
          C5
There's a boogie woogie man on the piano 
            G5                         C5
And all the backwoods boppers shoutin' go cat go 
           F                        C
   They've never been afraid of the Boogie Man
           G                              C 
   Nothin' makes you feel better than the boogie woogie can
      F                          C 
   So don't you be afraid of the Boogie Man
                  D 
   He'll take you down to New Orleans
              G 
   Where that rhythm all began
      F 
   So don't you
   G                                  C 
    Don't you be afraid of the Boogie Man 
C5
 Grandpa's in the corner in his fishing clothes 
C5
 Reeling to the rhythm everywhere it goes 
        C5
All the boogie woogie babies tearing up the floor
          G5                            C5 
When they get a little bit, they want a little more 
           F                        C
   They've never been afraid of the Boogie Man 
           G                              C
   Nothin' makes you feel better than the boogie woogie can
      F                          C 
   So don't you be afraid of the Boogie Man
                  D 
   He'll take you down to New Orleans
              G 
   Where that rhythm all began
      F 
   So don't you
   G                                  C 
    Don't you be afraid of the Boogie Man 
     C5
In a red El Dorado at the break of day 
     C5
That Boogie Woogie man will be slipping away
                 C5 
Althought you're never gonna know it when he's out of sight
             G5                     C5 
He'll shut a juke box down again tomorrow night 
           F                        C
   They've never been afraid of the Boogie Man
           G                              C 
   Nothin' makes you feel better than the boogie woogie can
      F                          C 
   So don't you be afraid of the Boogie Man
                  D 
   He'll take you down to New Orleans
              G 
   Where that rhythm all began
      F                   C 
   It works for me, it'll work for you
                  D 
   He'll have you doing things
            G 
   That you didn't know you knew
      F 
   So don't you
   G  
   Don't you be afraid
       F 
   Now don't ya 
   G                           C5
    Don't you be afraid of the Boogie Man
