Honaloochie Boogie Lyrics - Babylon Zoo

I was a city child with a dead-end smile 

And a worm's-eye point of view 

Oh I knew my way, I was a back-street stray 

And I had my eyes on you 

Now I got this friend and he's a screwdriver-jiver 

You know, some kinda automobeat on the street 

And he has converted me to rock'n'roll 

I just wanna dance to 

Honaloochie boogie yeah 

Get in time, don't worry 'bout the shirt shine 

Honaloochie boogie yeah 

You sure started somethin' 

Now my hair gets longer as the beat gets stronger 

Wanna tell Chuck Berry my news 

I get my kicks outta guitar licks 

And I've sold my steel-toed shoes 

Now I got this friend and he's a spider west-sider 

You know, he's hung up on a protection rejection thing 

But I have made him see the light 

He just wanna dance to 

Honaloochie boogie yeah 

Get in time, don't worry 'bout the shirt shine 

Honaloochie boogie yeah 

You sure started somethin' 

Honaloochie boogie yeah 

Get in time, don't worry 'bout the shirt shine 

Honaloochie boogie yeah 

You sure started somethin'
