Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy - Andrew Sisters
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, a-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 ´im
He makes the company jump 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 plays the boogie woogie bugle he was busy 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 toot 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 ´im
ha-ha-hand the company jumps when he plays reveille
He´s the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B
(instrumental)
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
Because they know how he plays when someone gives him a beat
He really breaks it up when he plays reveille
He´s boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B
Dat-da da-do-do da-dup
Dat-da da-do-do da-dup
Dat-da da-do-do da-dup
Dat-da da-do-do da-dup
ha-ha-hand the company jumps when he plays reveille
