George Thorogood And The Destroyers - New Boogie Chillun Lyrics






When I first into town people
I was comin' down Hasting Street
Heard everybody talkin' about
Henry's Swing Club
I decided I'd drop in there that night
I got down there
Everybody was drinkin' bourbon, scotch, beer, and wine
And feelin' just fine
Said let's go people
Get boogie tonight

Well, the little red rooster
Told the little red hen
Meet me down at the barn
Bout half past ten
You bring the whiskey, child
I'll bring the wine
We get together gonna rock it tonight
We gonna boogie
Yeah, boogie til the break of dawn
Boogie Chillen
Boogie Chillen

Well, the mama told papa
The night before last
Boogie here daddy
He was runnin' outta gas
Boogied last night and the night before
Fly back here we gonna shake it some more
We gonna boogie
Yeah, boogie til the break of dawn
Boogie Chillen

Now one night I was layin' down
I could hear my mother and father talkin'
Hear my mama tell my daddy
Let that boy boogie woogie
It's in him, and it's got to come out
Lord I felt so good
Well I boogie woogie all night long
Yeah I did

Now when I'm feelin' cool and good, baby
Like I feel right now
I let my guitar say what I say
Boogie Chillen
Boogie Chillen
Boogie Chillen

Well, you might be old
About ninety years
You ain't too old baby
To shift them gears
I was a little boy
In my future little address
Jumped right in, man I boogied a mess
I had a boogie baby
Yeah, boogie til the break of dawn
Boogie Chillen
Boogie Chillen

George Thorogood And The Destroyers New Boogie Chillun Comments
  1. Y.... P....

    This must be in the top 10 videos in youtube. Everybody's amazing, but just how magnetic was John Lee Hooker, man, what a deep presence,....Boogie on people! On a side note, I'm reading some comments about today's artists (Ariana Grande etc) not being up to the task, but you lknow what people, I think they're just misguided. Deep down I'm sure many of them would sing along with Jonh Lee and they'd be great given the right circumstances. My point is many of today's stars are very talented but for whatever reason they are wasting their talents on soulless stuff...

  2. A.... M....

    John Lee Hooker: the King of the Boogie.
    Willie "I am the Blues" Dixon.
    Albert Collins: The Master of the Telecaster"

  17. B.... t....

    LOL! Not really sure why George was the one to MC this, but he did good. His limited guitar licks let his guests shine all the brighter, and his enthusiasm and attitude are always positive and contagious! And to give George his due... he's paid his dues in the music business and it was a pleasure to see him rock 'em out one by one.

  18. P.... G....

    A lot of talent on the same stage. Rock and roll at its best.

  19. B.... D....

    Ttakeit whehe

  20. S.... I....

    love u GEORGE,,, BLESSINGS

  21. n.... ....

    Willie Dixon too!!

  22. D.... B....

    This entire concert blows my mind- all the greats playing with George and the Destroyers- what a great show! I have watched this over and over and it is one of the BEST in my eyes. I hope to see George and the boys make it back to my neck of the woods next year😉

    D.... B....

    Seen the boys last summer in Orillia you were not allowed to dance I had floors well I danced sucurity tried to give me a space to dance they were good they had a good laugh I wasn't sitting down with George playing are you kidding me

  23. D.... R....

    Albert Collins! Was playing just like this in 1966 in London, England.

  24. M.... F....

    The soul and vibes left from this are still reverberating through the astral plaine

    M.... F....

    this is music for the "gods" so to speak...
    So much greatness in a small package, real music.. real everything
    Gawd do i miss acts like this, this is stellar!
    Screw Nicky Minaj and Ariane Grande, THIS, this is music..

    M.... F....

    j0hnn13K I appreciate your intensity though I’m sure fans of those ladies can groove pretty hard to their kind of music. Any music that moves someone’s soul to outer space is ok by me!

    M.... F....

    @Meat Fancy Oh i do agree with that notion, and while Ariane can sing very well, i'm just not a fan of her music, and Nicky is... well to me, is just annoying lol but those are personal preferences regardless. I wouldnt fault someone for liking the music, personal tastes, i just prefer musician-musicians if you catch my drift :)

    M.... F....

    j0hnn13K I absolutely catch your drift

  25. C.... P....

    I've never seen Thorogood. But man I wish I had, that Boy ROCKS !

    C.... P....

    George Thorogood, I heard on the radio is coming to my city ! Yeah Baby you know it.

  44. M.... S....

  68. s.... ....

    One great musician excitedly introducing a legend... Doesn't get much better than this. It's things like this that make me realize everything's gonna be alright. Troubles are sure to come, but they can be overcome.

    s.... ....

    When I said "introducing a legend," I should have said "introducing legends." Even better.

    s.... ....

  78. J.... E....

    My Dad was drinking buddies with George Thorogood back in the mid to late 70s, and has quite a few tales to share, not always glamorous, decorative, or legal... but quite interesting to say the least.

    If Thorogood liked to "drink alone," a lot of crazy things happened once he had company.

    Thorogood and John Lee; this is the stuff, man...

    J.... E....

    Great, thx for this tale..
