Story Behind The Song
When I was a kid, I wanted to learn to play a Boogie Woogie but my piano teacher would not allow me to play anything but classical music. So, I finally wrote my own Boogie Woogie.

Lyrics
Boogie Woogie Stroll
W/M Kelli Grant, the Queen of Swing™
(piano run)
1v/
So, Let's Rock & Roll to the Boogie Woogie Stroll
You can scream & shout
We're gonna work things out
I wanna hold you tight
Til the break of day
Come on my little darling
what do you say?
B/
Come on Baby - Let's Rock 'n Roll
Come on Baby - to the Boogie Woogie Stroll
Come on baby - you're the one for me
Come on Baby - I wanna set you free ^
I love you so, I'll never let you go //
So, let's rock 'n roll
To the Boogie Woogie Stroll
(Blues walk up - gliss) Boogie
2B/
You go up & down
The it's side to side
You got one step up
Then it's 4 behind
You grab your partner
Then you turn around
If you miss one step
You may be on the ground
You can't be shy to shake, rattle & roll
You gotta lose control
To do the Boogie Woogie Stroll.
(Blues walk up - gliss) Boogie (2nd time (piano run)
VAMP
II: A Boogie boogie boogie Bop a doo wop :II (4 times)
You can't be shy to shake, rattle & roll
You gotta lose control
To do the Boogie Woogie Stroll.
2nd time (piano run)
2v/
We're gonna rock this town
Turn it upside down
Swing a 4/4 beat
You gotta lay down the heat
You gotta shake your brain
To let yourself go
Come on my sweet baby
Do the Boogie Woogie Stroll
