CHATTANOOGA SHOESHINE BOY

Have you ever passed the corner of 4th and Grand
Where a little ball of rhythm's got a shoeshine stand
The people gather round and they clap their hands 
he's a great big bundle of joy.
He pops a boogie woogie rag 
the Chattanooga shoeshine boy.



He charges you a nickel just to shine one shoe
He makes the oldest kind of leather look like new
You feel as though you wanna dance when 
he gets through.
He's a great big bundle of joy.
He pops a boogie woogie rag 
the Chattanooga shoeshine boy.



It's a wonder that the rag don't tear 
the way he makes it pop!
You ought to see him fan the air 
with his hoppity hippity hoppity hippity hop!



He opens up for business when the clock strikes nine
He likes to get 'em early when they're feeling fine
Everybody gets a little rise and shine 
with a great big bundle of joy
He pops a boogie woogie rag 
the Chattanooga shoeshine boy!



It's a wonder that the rag don't tear...
He pops a boogie woogie rag 
the Chattanooga shoeshine boy!
