(Boogie!)
You hear the rhythm rompin'
(Boogie!)
You see the drummer stompin'
Drumboogie, drumboogie
(Boogie!)
It really is a killer
Drumboogie, drumboogie
The drum boogie-woogie

(Boogie!)
The rhythm won't offend you
(Boogie!)
It's really gonna send you
Drumboogie, drumboogie
(Boogie!)
It really is a killer
Drumboogie, drumboogie
The drum boogie-woogie

(Boogie!)
You hear the piano rompin'
(Boogie!)
You see the drummer stompin'
Drumboogie, drumboogie
(Drumboogie!)
The cat's a killer-diller
Drumboogie, drumboogie
The drum boogie-woogie

Come on, Krup, knock yourself out!

(Instrumental Interlude)

Boogie! (Lah-dah-dee-lah-dah-lah-dah)
Boogie! (Lah-dah-dee-lah-dah-lah-dah)

Now, mister, can't keep on a-drivin'
Just gently jam the jivin'
Drumboogie, the cat is rockin' with a solid eight
I tell you it's mortigate
The joint is jumpin' with a drumboogie
Drumboogie
Drum boogie-woogie, Yeah!

(Drum Solo)
Three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine
Ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen
Aaaahhhhhh, Boogie!
