Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy Lyrics
Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy - Graham Blvd.
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
But he was gone with the draft
He's in the army now, 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 couldn't 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-toot, a-toot, a-toot-diddelyada-toot
He blows it eight to the bar in boogie rhythm
He can't blow a note unless the bass
And guitar is playin' with i'm
He makes the company jump when he plays reveille
He's the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B
He was our boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B
And when he plays boogie woogie bugle
He was buzy as a bzzz bee
And when he plays
He makes the company jump eight to the bar
He's the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B
Toot-diddelyada, toot-diddelyada
Toot, toot, he blows it eight to the bar
He can't blow a note
If the bass and guitar isn't with i'm
And the company jumps when he plays reveille
He's the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B
He puts the boys asleep with boogie every night
And wakes 'em up the same way in the early bright
They clap their hands and stamp their feet
Because they know how he plays
When someone gives him a be
Oh ,woooo, He really breaks it up when he plays reveille
He's the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B
A-toot, a-toot, a-toot-diddelyada-toot-toot-toot
He blows it eight to the bar
He can't blow a note if the bass
And guitar isn't with i'm
And the company jumps when he plays reveille
He's the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B
