I got a bagful of boogie, pocketful of rhythm and blues
I got a bagful of boogie, pocketful of rhythm and blues
Been walkin' 'round in this old town so long I got holes in both of my shoes
Just a country boy from the state of Illinois
I tryin' to find my way
Just a redneck hick with a guitar and a pick
Want to try my luck in Hollywood L.A
Livin' in the city lookin' at the movie stars
While they're drivin' down Sunset Strip in big old shiny cars
I'm standin' on the corner
Thinkin' 'bout the folks I left behind
Got a bagful of boogie, a pocketful of rhythm and blues
I got a bagful of boogie, a pocketful of rhythm and blues
Been walkin' 'round in this old town so long I got holes in both of my shoes
Woo-ha
Just a good old boy with my bagful of joy
And not one red cent to my name
So I keep on livin' just a-takin' and a-givin'
You know, Henry says it's really all the same
But I keep on tryin' to play these blues I've been cryin'
Won't give up 'til I have won the game
I'm out on the street with my little old boogie beat
To ease the pain
Got a bagful of boogie, pocketful of rhythm and blues
Got a bagful of boogie, pocketful of rhythm and blues
Been walkin' 'round in this old town so long I got holes in both of my shoes
Been walkin' 'round in this old town so long I got holes in both of my shoes
I been walkin' 'round in this old town so long I got holes in both of my shoes
