Did you hear the story ‘bout old Bullmoose?
He played piano, really tore it loose
Whenever his a-heart was a-filled with gloom
He'd beat out a song in the old lunchroom
All the guys and gals would gather 'round
Just to hear that Bullmoose sound
Sayin’
Go Bullmoose!
Go Bullmoose!
Go Bullmoose!
Go Bullmoose!
Bullmoose playin’ on a Friday night
Two bad boys got up to fight
One old man yelled, "Hey, keep quiet!"
The next thing you know they started a riot
While everybody was a-jumpin’ around
All you could hear was that Bullmoose sound
Sayin’
Go Bullmoose!
Go Bullmoose!
Go Bullmoose!
Go Bullmoose, a-turn 'im loose!
(Piano Solo)
Bullmoose goin’ to a party one day
Everybody asked him, "Won't you sit down and play?"
When all of a sudden the room began to shake
"Whoops!" he cried, "It's a real earthquake"
Well, the people were fallin’ into holes in the ground
All you could hear was that Bullmoose sound.
Sayin’
Go Bullmoose!
Go Bullmoose!
Go Bullmoose!
Go Bullmoose, come on Bullmoose!
Aaaaaa-yeah
Let me hear it like it is, Bullmoose
Wooooh.........FADE
