Oh my boogaloo
Don't know what l'm gonna do
No way of ever catching you
My, my ba-baby boogaloo

Meet me down by the river
We'll go down to the water
If you're the taker, I wanna be the giver
On this side of the Minnesota

Oh, l only wanna hold you
Ah, l only wanna hold you
Oh, l only wanna hold you
Hold you in my arms forever

My, my boogaloo
Don't know what I'm gonna do
No way of ever catching you
My, my ba-baby boogaloo

Come down where I know a quiet place
Only members of the human race
We'd like to get a consistent life
Maybe we'll be there the whole night

Oh, l only wanna hold you
Ah, l only wanna hold you
Oh, l only wanna hold you
Hold you in my arms forever

My, my, my boogaloo
Don't know what I'm gonna do
No way of ever catching you
My, my ba-baby boogaloo

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

My, my, my boogaloo
Don't know what I'm gonna do
No way of ever catching you
My, my ba-baby boogaloo

Oh my boogaloo
Don't know what l'm gonna do
No way of ever catching you
My, my ba-baby boogaloo
