Walkin' Stick Boogie

Jerry Capehart


Old dancin' dick with his walkin' stick
Should have seen him when he got off the train
He had all the people standin' in the rain
Doin' the walkin' stick boogie
Watchin' the walkin' stick boogie
He's the fastest man that ever danced into town
He's got the fastest kick, with his walkin' stick
You should see the way that he throws it around
When he dances upside down, doin' the walkin' stick boogie
Doin' the walkin' stick boogie
He's got the people jumpin' just like the fleas on a hound

You should see the way that the chicks get their kicks
When ol' dick gets to throw his walkin' stick
Doin' the walkin' stick boogie
Doin' the walkin' stick boogie
The joint was so hot
That the boards were flyin' off the floor
The girls all cried, when he said goodbye
They knew that the town would be on the bum
And they couldn't have anymore fun
Doin' the walkin' stick boogie, the walkin' stick boogie
It was a very sad day when ol' dick danced out of town
