Back in the year nineteen and five We had to have a rhythm very much alive We didn't have thing Still we'd sing We had to walk for the king til' the bell would ring Hypnotizin' boogie It's that hypnotizin' boogie It's that hypnotizin' boogie Sure feels good I can't dance but I wish I could
Now Queen Victoria gave a costume ball Bow to your lady turn your back to the wall One guy jumped up in a ratty zoot suit Ripped off his mask he wanted to see if the sucker flew Hypnotizin' boogie It's that hypnotizin' boogie It's that hypnotizin' boogie Sure feels good I can't dance but I wish I could
Back in the Coliseum man oh Rome Caesar and Cleopatra make themselves at home Julie said to Cleo, let's take a little walk Cleo said to Julius shut up and don't talk
Hypnotizin' boogie It's that hypnotizin' boogie It's that hypnotizin' boogie It's that hypnotizin' boogie Gimme such a thrill I wanna dance I wish I could
Hey inside outside every all around We got to hava hava the hypnotizin' boogie type of sound If you ain't heard it You wish to know I'll give you a little taste just before I go
Hypnotizin' boogie Hoo hypnotizin' boogie It's that hypnotizin' boogie Gimme such a thrill I wanna dance I think I will I wanna dance I think I will I wanna dance I think I will
