[length: 02:17]
[00:14.76]He was a famous trumpet man out Chicago way
[00:17.06]He had a boogie style that no one else could play
[00:19.72]He was the top man at his craft, but then his number came up
[00:23.34]And he was gone with the draft, he’s in the army now a blowin’ reveille
[00:28.12]He’s the boogie woogie bugle boy of company B
[00:30.37]They made him blow a bugle for his Uncle Sam
[00:31.72]It really brought him down because he could not jam
[00:34.45]The captain seemed to understand
[00:36.69]Because the next day the cap’ went out and drafted the band
[00:39.13]And now the company jumps when he plays reveille
[00:41.30]He’s the boogie woogie bugle boy of company B
[00:44.15]A root, a toot, a toodlie-a-da-toot, he blows it eight to the bar
[00:48.97]In boogie rhythm, he can’t blow a note unless a bass
[00:51.01]And guitar is playin’ with him and the company jumps when he plays reveille
[00:56.39]He’s the boogie woogie bugle boy of company B
[00:59.07]He was some boogie woogie bugle boy of company B
[01:05.10]When he played his boogie woogie bugle, he was busy as a busy bee
[01:07.52]And when he played he made the company jump eight to the bar
[01:11.01]He’s the boogie woogie bugle boy of company B
[01:13.23]Andata toodliata-toodliata, toot, toot, he blows it eight to the bar
[01:17.79]He can’t blow a note if a bass and guitar isn’t with him
[01:23.26]And the company jumps when he plays reveille
[01:25.53]He’s the boogie woogie bugle boy of company B
[01:29.00]
[01:43.94]He puts the boys to sleep with boogie every night
[01:45.86]And wakes ’em up the same way in the early bright
[01:47.80]They clap their hands and stamp their feet
[01:49.52]’Cause they know how it goes when someone gives him a beat
[01:52.44]Woh, woh, he wakes ’em up when he plays reveille
[01:54.70]The boogie woogie bugle boy of company B
[01:57.34]A root, a toot, a toodli-a-da to, toot, toot, toot, he’s blowin’ eight to the bar
[02:02.22]Can’t blow a note if a bass and guitar isn’t, woh, with him
[02:07.08]And the company jumps when he plays reveille
[02:09.51]He’s the boogie woogie bugle boy of company B
