paroles de chanson Don't Boogie Woogie - Ray Stevens

I was feelin' kind of poorly,
Hadn't been lookin' too fine
I just had to find out
What was ailin' this old body of mine
So I went to my family doctor
To get my temperature and set me straight
And the first thing he did was to tell me
To quit eatin' every good thing I ate

Whoaa, and then he told me I had to stop smokin'
Lay off of that beer and whiskey
He said, "you need all the help you can get my friend"
And confidentially
He looked at me, he shook his head,
And like a friend he took my hand and he said:

Don't boogie woogie when you say your prayers tonight
(Don't boogie woogie, don't boogie woogie)
I said now boogie woogie when you send your prayers tonight
(Don't boogie woogie, don't boogie woogie)
You have been over-rockin', you know that it ain't right
You better turn on the Lord when you turn off the light
Don't boogie woogie when you say your prayers tonight
(Don't boogie woogie, don't boogie woogie)

Then he wired me up like a spaceman
And he turned on that cardiograph
The needle went out of sight,
And the doc turned white
And he called in his entire staff
And then he cried out in disbelief
And told me with startling conviction
He said, if you don't live right son
You're gonna die of cholesterol constriction
Yeah, he looked at me, he shook his head
Here's a prescription that I know you're gonna dread
And he said:

Don't boogie woogie when you say your prayers tonight
(Don't boogie woogie, don't boogie woogie)
I said now don'tcha boogie woogie when you send your prayers tonight
(Don't boogie woogie, don't boogie woogie)
You have been over-rockin', you know that it ain't right
You better turn on the Lord when you turn off the light
Don't boogie woogie when you say your prayers tonight
(Don't boogie woogie, don't boogie woogie)

He looked at me, he shook his head
Here's a prescription that I know you're gonna dread
And he said:

Oh, don't boogie woogie when you say your prayers tonight
(Don't boogie woogie, don't boogie woogie)
You can't boogie woogie when you say your prayers tonight
(Don't boogie woogie, don't boogie woogie)
You have been over-rockin', you know that ain't right...
