Honaloochie Boogie

I was a city child with a dead-end smile
 And a worm's-eye point of view
 Oh I knew my way, I was a back-street stray
 And I had my eyes on you
 Now I got this friend and he's a screwdriver-jiver
 You know, some kinda automobeat on the street
 And he has converted me to rock'n'roll
 I just wanna dance to
 Honaloochie boogie yeah
 Get in time, don't worry 'bout the shirt shine
 Honaloochie boogie yeah
 You sure started somethin'
 Now my hair gets longer as the beat gets stronger
 Wanna tell Chuck Berry my news
 I get my kicks outta guitar licks
 And I've sold my steel-toed shoes
 Now I got this friend and he's a spider west-sider
 You know, he's hung up on a protection rejection thing
 But I have made him see the light
 He just wanna dance to
 Honaloochie boogie yeah
 Get in time, don't worry 'bout the shirt shine
 Honaloochie boogie yeah
 You sure started somethin'
 Honaloochie boogie yeah
 Get in time, don't worry 'bout the shirt shine
 Honaloochie boogie yeah
 You sure started somethin'
