[Intro]
Gm Bb F
[Verse 1]
Bb You heard of the boogaloo down Broadway Bb Heard of the jingle jang Gm You heard of the African twist, now C7 F7 But you ain't heard a thing Bb D7 You don't need an education Eb Ebm To learn how to do this dance Bb Gm All you need is a flip sensation C7 F7 Bb And the nerve to take a chance
[Chorus]
Bb Gm It's the down home strut Bb You just hold your head up Gm Now, just keep in time Bb F7 Drag a leg behind
[Verse 2]
Bb Some of you think I'm goofin' Bb And city folks laugh at me Gm But the folks down home have a groove of their own C7 F7 And it's cool as it can be Bb D7 If you think you wanna do it Eb Ebm You gotta hold your head up high Bb Gm Put one hand on your hip, now C7 F7 Bb And the other down by your side
[Chorus]
Bb Gm It's the down home strut Bb You just hold your chin up Gm Drag a leg behind Bb F7 Now, just keep in time
[Saxophone Solo]
Bb Gm Bb Gm C F
[Out-Chorus]
Bb Gm It's the down homе strut Bb You just hold your head up Gm Now, just keep in time Bb Drag a leg bеhind Gm Now, you drop one hip Bb Let your back leg flip Gm It's the down home strut Bb Gm Keep your head way up
