We love to boogie
We love to boogie

Bolan billy boogie
We love to boogie on a Saturday night

The passions of the Earth blasted its mind

We love to boogie
We love to boogie on a Saturday night
I said we love to boogie

Be-bop, baby, the dance is where it's at
I love to boogie
Yes, I love to boogie on a Saturday night
I said I love to boogie
I love to boogie
Jitterbug boogie
I love to boogie
I love to boogie on a Saturday night
I love to boogie
I love to boogie
I love to boogie
I love to boogie
I love to boogie on a Saturday night
