Lyrics

If you’re thinkin’ you’re too cool to boogie
Boy, oh boy, have I got news for you
Everybody here tonight must boogie
Let me tell ya, you are no exception to the rule

Get on up on the floor
‘Cause we’re gonna boogie oogie oogie
Till you just can’t boogie no more (no more boogie)
Boogie no more
You can’t boogie no more (no more boogie)
Boogie no more, listen to the music

There’s no time to waste, let’s get this show on the road
Listen to the music and let your body flow
The sooner we begin, the longer we’ve got to groove
Listen to the music and let your body move

Now get on up on the floor
‘Cause we’re gonna boogie oogie oogie
Till you just can’t boogie no more (no more boogie)
Boogie no more
You can’t boogie no more (no more boogie)
Boogie no more, listen to my bass here

Get down, boogie oogie oogie
Get down, boogie oogie oogie
Get down, boogie oogie oogie
Get down…

Boogie!…
