Boogie Mama Lyrics

Jerry Jeff Walker

Bobby Rambo

Just like the weather in Texas, you put me through too many changes
You don't give a damn, for no livin' man
And I doubt there's one that would claim you

Chorus:
Hey boogie mama, rock 'n roll queen, wild and strangest I've ever seen
Get your leg sweaty and shake it at me
It's ladies night tonight, you know your drinking for free

We were pickin' at the Frontier, Mama, sippin' on a long cold beer
Now much to my surprise, someone I didn't recognize
Walked in and the whole place got stuffy

Chorus

Now you heard about the honky-tonk women,
And the places that they hang out and hang in
But there'll never be a gal like my old Caledonia
She put you home on the ranges, yeah
