Boogie Woogie Christmas

By Jimmy Rankin and Patricia Conroy

Shake off your mittens, hang your snow suit up,
Pour some hot chocolate in your favorite cup,
Tune up the guitar, and I’ll get on the piano.

Tell your sweet sister to put her knickers on,
Invite all the neighbors, even mean old Tom,
It’s time we had a party, some boogie woogie Christmas cheer.

A boogie woogie Christmas, a ho ho ho!
A boogie woogie Christmas, away we go!
Here’s a little mistletoe, gimme a kiss,
I feel like some huggin’ on a night like this.

Bang on the radiator, crank up the heat,
Shake the dirt cat out off the Christmas tree,
Gonna have a party, some boogie woogie Christmas cheer.

Boogie woogie, shake that thing around!

A boogie woogie Christmas, a ho ho ho!
A boogie woogie Christmas, away we go!
If we’re still dancing at a quarter to four,
We’ll go slipping and sliding on linoleum floors.

Hang out with your friends, you have enough eggnog,
You’re getting kinda lippy, telling everyone off,
We’re trying to have a party, some boogie woogie Christmas cheer.

A boogie woogie Christmas, a ho ho ho!
A boogie woogie Christmas, away we go.
Here’s a little mistletoe, gimme a kiss,
I feel like some huggin’ on a night like this.

Shake off your mittens, hang your snow suit up,
Pour some hot chocolate in your favorite cup,
It’s time we had a party, some boogie woogie Christmas cheer!
We’re gonna have a party, some boogie woogie Christmas cheer!

…And here comes Santa!
