Bette Midler - Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy Lyrics

Send "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" ringtone to your cell

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. He's 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 the 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 toodlie-a-da-toot.

He blows it 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.

And when he played his 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.

Andata toodliata-toodliata toot toot

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 'em 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.

Woah woah he wakes 'em up when he plays reveille.

The boogie woogie bugle boy of company B.

A root a toot a toodli-a-da to toot toot toot

He's blowin' eight to the bar.

Yeah he can't blow a note if a bass and guitar

Isn't woah with him.

And the company jumps when he plays reveille.

He's the boogie woogie bugle boy of company B.
