#1.
F
We were just a plain ol' hillbilly band with a plain 

old country style.
F                                        C
We never played the kind of songs that'd drive anybody 

wild.
F            Fm               Bb
Played a railroad song with a stomping beat, we played 
  F
a blues song kinda slow and sweet.
        G                                           C
But the thing that knocked them off their feet was, ooh-wee!!

CHORUS:
     F
When Luther played the boogie-woogie..Luther played the

boogie-woogie.

Luther played the boogie-woogie..Luther played the 

boogie-woogie.
Bb
Luther played the boogie-woogie..Luther played the 

boogie-woogie.
F
Luther played the boogie-woogie..Luther played the 
              C                 F
boogie in the strangest kind of way..(play it strange!)

F                                       Fm    F
Well, we did our best to entertain everywhere we'd go.
F                                            C
We'd nearly wear our fingers off to give the folks a show.
       F                                                     Bb
Played jumping jive to make 'em get in the groove, we played sad 

songs real slow and smooth.
        G                                    C
But the only thing that'd make 'em move was, ooh-wee!!

CHORUS:
     F
When Luther played the boogie-woogie..Luther played the

boogie-woogie.

Luther played the boogie-woogie..Luther played the 

boogie-woogie.
Bb
Luther played the boogie-woogie..Luther played the 

boogie-woogie.
F
Luther played the boogie-woogie..Luther played the 
              C                 F
boogie in the strangest kind of way.
