Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy Lyrics by Michelle Creber

Timeless (Songs of a Century)

0

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” wеnt out and drafted the band
And now the company jumps whеn he plays reveille
He’s the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B
A root, a toot, a toodle-ee-ah-da toot
He blows eight to the bar, in boogie rhythm
He can’t blow a note unless a bass and guitar is playin’ 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
When he plays boogie woogie bugle
He was busy as a busy buzzy bee
And when he played, he made the company jump eight to the bar
He’s the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B
An-ah-da toodle-ee-ah-da, toodle-ee-ah-da, do doot
He blows it eight to the bar
He can’t blow a note if a bass and guitar isn’t with him
And the company jumps when he plays reveille
He’s the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B
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 it goes when someone gives him a beat
Whoa whoa, he wakes them up when he plays reveille
The boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B
A root, a toot, a toodle-ee-ah-da toot toot toot
He’s blowin’ eight to the bar
Can’t blow a note if a bass and guitar isn’t, oh wham bam
And the company jumps when he plays reveille
He’s the boogie woogie bugle boy of company B
Woah yeah
