_ [C] _ _ _ [F] _ [Cm] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ You [F] _ _ _ _ [F] know, I remember _
[C] a few years ago, _ [Dm]
[G] some funny things used to happen [Cm] to me, [Dm] _ [F] _ [D] about [C] 1956,
57.
_ [G] _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ At that time there was no blues scene or _ not really any kind of scene in [F] London.
_ _ _ [Bb] [F] I used to go out [C] and play my guitar in the streets [G] and _ [E] sing [F] things, _ [C] with a pass on the
hat band.
_ _ I remember one particular night, _ _ I was _ playing my guitar in a little alleyway
just off of Waldo [F] Street in Soho, _ _ _ and [C] _ I got busted by the [G] police. _ _ _ _
[F] This policeman [C] came
up and [Ab] _
[G] dragged me and my guitar [C] and my hat full of pennies [F] _ off to the police station.
[C] _ _ Anyway, the next day I [F] had to appear in Marlborough Street Police Court, _ [Gm] _ [C] _ _ _
and _ [G] there was quite a
[C] day.
[F] _ _ _ [D] [C] The police officer [Gm] giving his evidence.
_ [C] _ I was proceeding in a summerly direction,
my lord, _ _ _ [F] when I heard _ _ strange [Eb] sounds [C] coming [Cm] from [C] a walled-off place, my [G] lord.
_ A [C] sort [F] of
[A] boogey [G]-woogey [C] music was being played. _
[G] _ On further [C] investigation, _ _ _ I saw the defendant standing
there _ [F] with a guitar _ and an old hat on [C] the floor, _ collecting pennies.
_ [G] _ Well, I decided
that [F] he was contravening [C] a breach of the peace there, _
[G] _ _ _ [C] as there was a traffic jam about five
miles long down Waldo Street, wondering what all the _ fuss was [F] about. _ _
So then I arrested
the _ [C] defendant. _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] Just one moment, officer.
[C] _ [F] _ [D] What [C] is this boogey-woogey music [Gm] you're playing?
What is it you were talking about?
[C] _ Oh, well, my lord, _ _ said the officer getting out his
notebook, obviously been doing up his homework, [F] _ is a kind of _ jazz rhythm [C] music peculiar to
the American Negro.
_ [G] Oh, _ _ [F] what was the defendant doing _ [C] playing this kind of music there [G] in
Waldo [C] Street? _ _ _
_ Anyway, _ I got off with a caution.
_ _ [F] A year's conditional discharge, _ but I'll always
[C] remember that policeman and his boogey-woogey.
[G] _ So don't try to lay no [F] boogey [Fm]-woogey on the
[G] king of rock and roll.

_ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ I [C] _ don't want to hear no backtalk.
I'm speaking to no one.
Shut [Cm] your _ mouth.
[G] _ Everything is
going to work out tight [F] if you act [Cm] like you've [Fm] been told.
[Cm] Just don't try [Ebm] to lay no boogey-woogey
on the king of rock [G] and roll.
[C] _
Don't feed me no TV dinners when you know that [Cm] I'm yours
to stake.
_ [Bb] _ [C] I don't need no rank against those women's time to shake [Cm] the shake.
_ _ [F] You better
pull your thing together with your men dusted out.
[C] And if you feel that you're just dancing
and you know [Cm] you don't know what it's all about, [G] it ain't a matter of parkabings.
[F] That's
not going to justify your soul.
_ [Cm] Just don't try to lay [Eb] no boogey-woogey on the king of
rock and [Gm] roll.

[C] Don't [Bb] try [Cm] to lay no boogey-woogey on [B] the king of [Cm] rock and roll. _ _
When a wild girl started to shine, [C] so people ran [Cm] on [C] me.
_ If you don't arrive too late for
your wife, put your heads in 53.
[Cm] _ _ [F] You got what it takes [Cm] to keep their heads from [F] spinning.
Now I'm out of your red shack.
_ [C] But you [Cm] come on just like a fool, grinning in the back
of a red Cadillac.
_ [G] You can't come across the Oxford Bridge [F] until you pay the toll.

try to lay no boogey-woogey on the king of rock and [Gm] roll.
