Chattanoogie Shoe Shine Boy Lyrics - The Complete Releases 1959-1962 - Freddy Cannon

Chattanooga Shoe Shine Boy 

Have you ever passed the corner 

Of Fourth and Grand 

Where a little ball of rhythm 

Has a shoe shine stand 

Chattanooga Shoe Shine Boy 

(Harry Stone, Jack Stapp) 

Have you ever passed the corner 

Of Fourth and Grand 

Where a little ball of rhythm 

Has a shoe shine stand 

People gather round 

And they clap their hands 

He's a great big bundle of joy 

He pops the boogie woogie rag 

Chattanooga shoe shine boy 

Yeah, he charges you a nickel 

Just to shine one shoe 

He makes the oldest kind 

Of leather look like new 

Of leather look like new 

You feel as though you wanna dance 

When he gets through 

He's a great big bundle of joy 

He pops the boogie woogie rag 

Chattanooga shoe shine boy 

It's a wonder that the rag don't tear 

The way he makes it pop 

You ought to see him fan the air 

With his hoppity hippity 

Hoppity hippity hop hop hop 

He opens up for business 

When the clock strikes nine 

He likes to get em early 

When they're feeling fine 

Everybody gets a little rise and shine 

With the great big bundle of joy 

He pops the boogie woogie rag 

Chattanooga shoe shine boy 

Yeah, woo, oh, do it, do it, do it 

It's a wonder that the rag don't tear 

The way he makes it pop 

You ought to see him fan the air 

With his hoppity hippity 

Hoppity hippity hop hop hop 

He opens up for business 

When the clock strikes nine 

He likes to get em early 

When they're feeling fine 

Everybody gets a little rise and shine 

With the great big bundle of joy 

He pops the boogie woogie rag 

Chattanooga shoe shine boy 

Yeah, woo, do it, do it, do it, do it
