Back Porch Boogie
Intro lick, then Verse1
I grew up out in the country, where people treat you right
I had my own guitar at age 14, me and Daddy would play at night
Big cousin Eddie would join us, our friends and neighbors weÂ?d invite
We was pickinÂ? and grinninÂ? on the back porch, those were the best days of my life
Chorus 1
We played Back Porch Boogie, we could make it last all night long
Some good old folks just havinÂ? fun, singing a simple song
1 part Country, 2 parts Blues, 3 parts Honky Tonk
We played Back Porch Boogie, and everybodyÂ?d come sing along
Intro lick, then Verse 2
Now IÂ?m playing in a big time band, traveling Â?round the world
Staying in fancy hotels, and meetinÂ? fancy women, all dolled up in fancy pearls
This fast paced life never stops, itÂ?s enough to make my straight hair curl
But when I close my eyes IÂ?m home on the back porch, singinÂ? to a country girl
Chorus 2
WeÂ?re playing Back Porch Boogie, make it last all night long
Like 2 young kids just having fun, singing a simple song
1 part Country, 2 pts Blues, 3 pts Honky Tonk
WeÂ?re playing Back Porch Boogie, everybody come sing along
then Bridge
BurninÂ? the candle at both ends, I miss the good old days
I canÂ?t wait to get home again, to my back porch where I can play
To my back porch where I can playÂ?.
Chorus 3 (breakdown 1st ½, build 2nd ½?)
Back Porch Boogie, make it last all night long
Good old folks just having fun, singinÂ? a simple song
1 pt Country, 2 pts Blues, 3 pts Honky Tonk
WeÂ?re playing back porch boogie, everybody come sing along
Chorus 4 all big? Then Intro lick out
