You're Not Too Cool to Woogie

Don't worry,
the music will tell
you what to do.
Get up on the
dance floor
and boogie,
the music is telling you
its time to oogie,
I'll dance with you,
can you feel it
don't conceal it,
watch me woogie too.
Boogie, oogie, woogie
you're not too
cool to woogie.
Are you?

Thanks everyone, I wrote this after listening to the song "Boogie Oogie Oogie" in a club a few nights back...the song was sung by "A Taste of Honey" and here it is in its original form:

Boogie Oogie Oogie (1978)

If you're thinkin' you're too cool to boogie
Boy oh boy Have I got news for you.
Everybody here tonight must boogie
Let me tell ya' you are no exception to the rule.

Get on up on the floor
Cuz we're gonna boogie oogie oogie
Till you just can't boogie no more (boogie)
Boogie no more
You can't boogie no more (boogie)
Boogie no more, listen to the music.

There's no time to waste, let's get this show on the road.
Listen to the music and let your body flow.
The sooner we begin the longer we've got to groove.
Listen to the music and let your body move.

Now get on up on the floor
Cuz we're gonna boogie oogie oogie.
Till you just can't boogie no more (boogie)
Boogie no more
You can't boogie no more (boogie)
Boogie no more, listen to my bass here.

Get down, boogie oogie oogie.
get down, boogie oogie oogie.
Get down, boogie oogie oogie.
Get down.
