[Verse 1]
Have you ever passed the corner of Fourth and Grand
Where a little ball of rhythm has a shoe shine stand?
People gather round and they clap their hands
[Chorus]
He's a great big bundle of joy
He pops the boogie woogie rag
The Chattanooga shoe shine boy
[Verse 2]
Yeah, he charges you a nickel just to shine one shoe
He makes the oldest kind of leather look like new
You feel as though you wanna dance when he gets through
[Chorus]
He's a great big bundle of joy
He pops the boogie woogie rag
The Chattanooga shoe shine boy
[Bridge]
It's a wonder that the rag don't tear
The way he makes it pop
You ought to see him fan the air
With his hoppity-hippity
Hippity-hippity hop, hop, hop
[Verse 3]
He opens up for business when the clock strikes nine
He likes to get 'em early when they're feelin' fine
Everybody gets a little rise and shine
[Chorus]
With the great big bundle of joy
He pops the boogie woogie rag
The Chattanooga shoe shine boy
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, woah
Woah, do it, do it, do it
[Bridge]
It's a wonder that the rag don't tear
The way he makes it pop
You ought to see him fan the air
With his hoppity-hippity
Hippity-hippity hop, hop, hop
[Verse 3]
He opens up for business when the clock strikes nine
He likes to get 'em early when they're feelin' fine
Everybody gets a little rise and shine
[Chorus]
With the great big bundle of joy
He pops the boogie woogie rag
The Chattanooga shoe shine boy
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, woah
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it
