CHATTANOOGA SHOESHINE BOY
Recorded by: Red Foley

[1] Have you ever passed the corner
 of fourth and grand 
Where a little ball of rhythm
 has a shoeshine stand
[4] People gather 'round and they clap their hands
 he's a [1] great big bundle of joy
He pops a [5] boogie-woogie rag
 the Chattanooga Shoeshine [1] Boy

He charges you a nickel
 just to shine one shoe
He makes the oldest kind-a leather
 look like new
You feel as tho you wanta dance when he gets thru
 he's a great big bundle of joy
He pops a boogie-woogie rag
 the Chattanooga Shoeshine Boy

It's a [4] wonder that the rag don't tear
 [1] the way he makes it pop
[2] You ought to see him fan the air
 with his [5] [pause]
hoppity hippity hippty hoppity
hoppity hippity hop --- [1]

He opens up for business
 when the clock strikes nine
He likes to get 'em early
 when they're feelin fine
Ev'rybody gets a little rise-and-shine
 with a greag big bundle of joy
He pops a boogie-woogie rag
 the Chattanooga Shoeshine Boy

It's a wonder that the rag don't tear
 the way he makes it pop
Just listen to him fan the air
 here he goes [*]

He opens up for business
 when the clock strikes nine
He likes to get 'em early
 when they're feelin fine
Ev'rybody gets a little rise-and-shine
 with a great big bundle of joy
He pops a boogie-woogie rag
 the Chattanooga Shoeshine Boy

[*] = poppin' sounds
