Have you ever passed the
corner of Forth and
Grand
Where a little ball
o'rhythm has a shoe
shine stand
People gather 'round and
they clap their hands
He's a great big bundle
o'joy
He pops the boogie
woogie rag
The Chattanoogie shoe
shine boy
He charges you a nickel
just 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
The way he makes it pop
You ought to see him fan
the air
With his
hoppity-hippity-hippity
Hoppity-hoppity-hippity-hop
He opens up for business
when the clock strikes
nine
He likes to get up early
when they're feelin'
fine
Everybody gets a little
rise 'n shine
With the great big
bundle o'joy
He pops the boogie
woogie rag
The Chattanoogie shoe
shine boy
---- Instrumental
Interlude ----
It's a wonder that the
rag don't tear
The way he makes it pop
Just listen to him fan
the air
Here goes
He opens up for business
when the clock strikes
nine
He likes to get up early
when they're feelin'
fine
Everybody gets a little
rise 'n shine
With the great big
bundle o'joy
He pops the boogie
woogie rag
The Chattanoogie shoe
shine boy
The Chattanoogie shoe
shine boy
