Old man rhythm is in my shoes
no use t'sittin' and a'singin' the blues
so be my guest, you got nothin' to lose
won't ya let me take you on a sea cruise?
Oo-ee, oo-ee baby
oo-ee, oo-ee baby
oo-ee, oo-ee baby
won't ya let me take you on a sea cruise?
Feel like jumpin' baby won't ya join me please
i don't like beggin' but i'm on bended knee
I got to get t'rockin get my hat off the rack
i got to boogie woogie like a knife in the back
so be my guest, you got nothin' to lose
won't ya let me take you on a sea cruise?
Oo-ee, oo-ee baby
oo-ee, oo-ee baby
oo-ee, oo-ee baby
won't ya let me take you on a sea cruise?
I got to get t'movin' baby i ain't lyin'
my heart is beatin' rhythm and it's right on time
so be my guest, you got nothin' to lose
won't ya let me take you on a sea cruise?
Oo-ee, oo-ee baby
oo-ee, oo-ee baby
oo-ee, oo-ee baby
won't ya let me take you on a sea cruise?
Feel like jumpin' baby won't ya join me please
i don't like beggin' but i'm on bended knee
Oo-ee, oo-ee baby
oo-ee, oo-ee baby
oo-ee, oo-ee baby
won't ya let me take you on a sea cruise?
*** the original version was sung by songwriter huey piano smith, but ace records
removed his vocal from the tape and re-dubbed it with that of white singer frankie
ford in order to make the song more commercial; frankie also re-wrote some of the
lyrics to get a co-songwriting credit.
