Here's a little tune we're gonna play for you, 

There ain't nothin' to it and it's easy to do: 

Called the Calloway Boogie, 

It's the Calloway Boogie, 

Keeps you groovy twenty-four hours a day! 



If you like music with a boogie beat, 

Here's a little ditty that's really all reet! 

It's the Calloway Boogie, 

It's the Calloway Boogie, 

Keeps you groovy twenty-four hours a day! 



I woke up with the blues the other day, 

The cats started jamming and they blew away. 

With the Calloway Boogie, 

The Calloway Boogie, 

Keeps you groovy twenty-four hours a day! 



We play waltzes, bebop and jive, 

But here's the kind of music that keeps you alive! 

It's the Calloway Boogie, 

It's the Calloway Boogie, 

Keeps you groovy twenty-four hours a day! 



If you like boogie with some hi-de-ho, 

Just listen to me, here's the way it goes: 

Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi! 

Ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho! 

Keeps you groovy twenty-four hours a day!
