[Johnny Cash] We were just a plain ol´ hillbilly band With a plain ol´ country style We never played the kind of songs That´d drive anybody wild
Played a railroad song with a stomping beat We played a blues song kinda slow and sweet But the thing that knocked them off of their feet was Ooh-wee
[Johnny Cash] When Luther played the boogie-woogie Luther played the boogie-woogie Luther played the boogie-woogie Luther played the boogie-woogie Luther played the boogie woogie Luther played the boogie-woogie Luther played the boogie-woogie Luther played the boogie In the strangest kind of way Play it strange!
Well, we did our best to entertain Everywhere we´d go We´d nearly wear our fingers off To give the folks a show Played jumping jive to make them get in the groove We played sad songs, real slow and smooth But the only thing that´d make them move was Ooh-wee
[Johnny Cash] When Luther played the boogie-woogie Luther played the boogie-woogie Luther played the boogie-woogie Luther played the boogie-woogie Luther played the boogie woogie Luther played the boogie-woogie Luther played the boogie-woogie
Luther played the boogie In the strangest kind of way Play it strange!
