Boogie Woogie Blue Plate Songtext
von Louis Jordan and His Tympany Five

There′s a gal at the local beanery
She's a pretty hunk of scenery
She can make a chocolate soda go hiss
You oughta go around and dig it
When she′s workin' at the spigot
You can hear her calling orders like this

"Give me a ham white down and a burger round
Side a slaw and a seven layer
OJ up wreck two in a cup
And a boogie woogie blue plate"


"Give me a triple beef on a load of hay
Combo rye and a bottle of aye
Coming through with a slab of moo
And a boogie woogie blue plate

"Draw one, draw two, get that coffee perkin'
Draw three, draw four, hold that mayo on the chopped egg workin′
One a tuna wheat with a side of fries
86 on the cherry pies
Side of greens on the franks and beans
And a boogie woogie blue plate"

"Draw one, draw two, get that coffee perkin′
Draw three, you better make it four, hold that mayo on the chopped egg workin'
One a tuna wheat with a side of fries
86 on the cherry pies
Side of greens on the franks and beans
And a boogie woogie blue plate
Boogie woogie blue plate"
