Boogie Woogie Baltimore Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
I was [G]born in Dixie
on a frosty morning
Started crying them blues
on the day I was born
I learned to dance at my momma's knee
And I could do the boogie -woogie
by the time I was three
On a frosty morning
[Gm]on t[G]he day I was born
At my momma's knee
About the time I was three
I was big for my age
About the [Gm]time I was six
I was whoopin' alligator[G]s
With a hickory stick
I never feared [Gm]nothin'
And I never did run
I could [G]do the boogie -woogie
Like a son of a gun
About the time I was six
With a hickory stick
And I never did run
Like a son of a gun
[C]Well, I ain't ever had nothin'
and I ain't got nothin' [G]to lose
As long [F]as I hear a low -down gui[C]tar
pick[G]in' the blues
Ain't [Cm]nobody nowhere to do the boogie
[C]like I can[G], just like I can
I'm a get -down -jumpin' heebie
[F]-jeebie -boogie -woogie [G]man
[Gm]My c[G]ollar's blue and
my neck [Gm]is red
I got great big [G]ears on the side of my head
Got a stripped down Harley
that's bad to the bone
And I can do the boogie -woogie
till the cows come home
And my neck is red on the side of my head
And it's bad to the bone
till the cows come home
[C]Well, I ain't ever had nothin'
and I ain't got nothin' [G]to lose
As long as [F]I hear a blues -bound
[C]guitar
pickin' the [G]blues[Gm]
[G]Ain't [C]nobody nowhere to do the boogie like I can[G],
just like I can
I'm the get -down drummer,
you can [F]do the boogie with me

[Verse 2]
[G]Well, [C]I ain't never had nothin'
and [Cm]I ain't got [Gm]nothin' to [G]lose
As long as [F]I can hear the lowdown guit[C]ar pickin' t[G]he blues,
just pickin' the blues
Ain't [C]nobody nowhere to do the boogie [G]like I can[Gm],
just [G]like I can
I'm the get -down, jumpin',

boogie -woogie [G]man.

Oh, yes, I am.
Oh, [Gm]yes, I [G]am.
