Chattanoogie Shoe Shine Boy by Frank Sinatra
Chattanoogie Shoe Shine Boy lyrics
Hoppity-hippity-hippity-hoppity-hoppity-hippity-hop
Mop, mop
Have you ever passed the corner of Forth and Grand?
Where a little ball o' rhythm's a shoe shine stand
The neighbors gather 'round and then they clap their
hand
He's a great big bundle o' joy
He pops the boogie woogie rag
The Chattanoogie shoe shine boy
He charges you a nickel to shine one shoe
He makes the oldest kind o' leather look like new
You feel as though you wanna dance when he gets through
He's a great big bundle o' joy
He pops the boogie woogie rag
The Chattanoogie shoe shine boy
It's a wonder that the rag don't tear
Man the way this cat makes it pop, mop
You ought to see him fan the air
With his hoppity-hippity-hippity-hoppity-hoppity-
hippity-hoppity
He opens up for business when the clock strikes nine
He likes to catch 'em early when they're feelin' fine
Everybody gets a little rise 'n shine
With that great big bundle o' joy
He pops the boogie woogie rag
The Chattanoogie shoe shine boy
It's a wonder that the rag don't tear
The way he makes it pop
You ought to see him fan the air
With his hoppity-hippity-hippity-hoppity-hoppity-
hippity-hoppity
He opens up for business when the clock strikes nine
He likes to catch 'em early when they're feelin' fine
Everybody gets a little rise 'n shine
With that great big bundle o' joy
He pops the boogie woogie rag
The Chattanoogie shoe shine
He's my bundle o' joy, man you know one thing
If you don't get your foot out of the way at time
This cat will bad down, run through the leather
And manicure your toes as great, mop
