Hold on, hold on, hold on,
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
You know it's been so long
Since she has been gone,
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
I seen her with the gypsies, dancin' in the woods,
She's always been unfaithful to me,
She's never been good.
I said, "please, don't talk to strangers, baby."
But she always do.
She said, "i talk to strangers if i want to
'Cause i'm a stranger too."
Hold on, hold on, hold on,
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
You know it's been so long
Since she has been gone,
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Alright!
Hold on, hold on, hold on,
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
You know it's been so long
Since she has been gone,
Hold on, hold on, hold on,
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Bara-oompah-oompah-pah-pah!
I thought i'd make it the day you went away,
But i can't make it
Till you come home again to stay-yi-yay-yi-yay.
I can't get used to living here,
While my heart is broke, my tears i cried for you.
I want you here to have and hold,
As the years go by and we grow old and grey.
Now you're expecting me to live without you,
But that's not something that i'm looking forward to.
I can't get used to living here,
While my heart is broke, my tears i cried for you.
I want you here to have and hold,
As the years go by and we grow old and grey.
Ev'ry time i see your face,
It reminds me of the places we used to go.
But all i got is a photograph
And i realise you're not coming back anymore.
Ev'ry time i see your face,
It reminds me of the places we used to go.
But all i got is a photograph
And i realise you're not coming back anymore.
Ev'ry time i see your face,
It reminds me of the places we used to go.
But all i got is a photograph
And i realise you're not.
I phoned up my doctor to see what's the matter,
He said, "come on over."
I said, "do i have to?"
My knees started shakin', my wrist started achin'
When my doctor said to me:
"oh my my, oh my my, can you boogie, can you slide?
Oh my my, oh my my, you can boogie if you try.
Oh my my, oh my my, it's guaranteed to keep you alive."
The head nurse she blew in, just like a tornado,
When they started dancin', i jumped off the table.
I felt myself healin' and as i was leavin',
This is what they said to me:
"oh my my, oh my my, can you boogie, can you slide?
Oh my my, oh my my, you can boogie if you try.
Oh my my, oh my my, it's guaranteed to keep you alive."
(oh - yeah hey!
All right!
Oh!
Yeah! Yeah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
All right now!
Ooh!)
Now if you should slow down and you're feelin' low down,
Don't call up your doctor, just grab you a partner.
It's what you've been missin', i've got your prescription,
That boogie woogie remedy.
"oh my my, oh my my, you can boogie, you can slide?
Oh my my, oh my my, we can boogie 'til we die.
Oh my my, oh my my, it's guaranteed to keep you alive, alright."
"oh my my, oh my my, watch me boogie, watch me slide,
Oh my my, (ow!) Oh my my, born to boogie, born to slide. (can you boogie?)
Oh my my, oh my my, oo-wee, boogie, oo-wee, aye. (can you boogie?)
Oh my my, oh my my, play that boogie, play that slide. (can you boogie?)
Oh my my, oh my my, love that boogie, love that slide. (can you boogie?)
Oh my my, oh my my, oh, my boogie, oh, my slide. (can you boogie?)
Oh my my, oh my my, come on, baby, come on now. (can you boogie)
Oh my my, oh my my, come on, baby, i'm willing to die. (can you boogie?)
Oh my my, oh my my, come on, baby, come on, try. (can you boogie?)
Oh my my, oh my my."
Step lightly,
Things will work out fine.
Nice and easy,
All it takes is time.
Please, believe me,
I wish this song was yours instead of mine.
Now don't be angry at what i'm telling you,
I'd be happy if you would see it too.
But in the meantime,
Find yourself a love that's true to you.
(ah -)
(sha la la)
But in the meantime, (meantime)
Find yourself a love that's gonna last.
Now i told you,
Things don't work out fast,
Gotta go now,
Let's forget the past.
But in the meantime, (in the meantime)
You gotta find yourself a love that's gonna last.
You gotta find yourself a love that's gonna last.
You gotta find yourself a love that's gonna last.
(in the meantime)
You gotta find a love that last.
(in the meantime)
You gotta find a love that last.
Your eyes are green and your legs are long,
And if i'm gonna get you, well, i gotta be strong.
But you're like the devil with horns in your head,
The only way i'll get you is to get you in bed.
Devil woman, you're like a stranger to me.
Devil woman, this ain't the way it should be.
Ev'rytime i see you in the neighbourhood,
I say, you're the kind of woman that makes me feel good.
I wanna beat you up then i wanna be kind,
And one of these days i'm gonna make you mine.
Sexy sadie, you look like the devil to me.
Devil woman, that's not the way it should be.
Yeah!
Devil woman, you're like a stranger to me.
Devil woman, this ain't the way it should be.
Early in the mornin' when the sun is hot,
All i do is think about the things you got.
But you're like the devil with horns in your head,
The only way i'll get you is to get you in bed.
Devil woman, you're like an angel to me.
Devil woman, this ain't the way it should be.
Yeah.
Ev'rytime i see you walkin' down the street,
I say, you're the kind of woman i just gotta meet.
But you're like the devil with horns in your head,
The only way i'll get you is to get you in bed.
But you're like the devil with horns in your head,
The only way i'll get you is to get you in bed.
You look like the devil with horns in your head,
The only way i'll get you is to get you in bed.
I said, you look like the devil.
