Red Foley — The Hoot Owl Boogie

[Verse 1] Oh, down in the pine woods and over in the holler You buy a jug of squeezin' for two silver dollars You never catch ’em workin' and still they keep it thrivin' But when they hear a boogie beat they really get to jivin’ They love to do the boogie to the hoot owl boogie all night [Chorus] And they go "Hoot" they really started somethin' With their hoot and everything is alright Hoot, the woods are really jumpin' with the hoot owl boogie on a Saturday night [Verse 2] The gals work in dresses and they're kinda slow and talkin' You think you got a cutie, you take her out and walkin' Stollin' arm and arm beneath the lonesome pines You're bound to get a kiss sweet as cherry wine And then you do the boogie to the hoot owl boogie all night [Chorus] And she goes "Hoot" you really started somethin’ With with their hoot and everything is alright Hoot, my happy heart is jumpin’ with the hoot owl boogie on a Saturday night [Verse 3] You take your baby home when daylight comes a peepin' You never have to worry if the old folks are sleepin’ Hear the rooster crowin' and the hound dog [?] Then you hear a car turn to her and say Well sister done the boogie, well the hoot owl boogie all night [Chorus] And they go "Hoot" they really started somethin' With the hoot and everything is alright Hoot, the woods are really jumpin' with the hoot owl boogie on a Saturday night Hoot-hoot, hoot, hoot-hoot, hoot, hoot-hoot The hoot owl boogie on a Saturday night
