D#
Have you ever passed the corner of Forth and Grand?

Where a little ball of rhythm has a shoe-shine stand?
G#
People gather round and they clap their hands..
       D#
he's a great big bundle of joy.
            A#                     G#                     D#  A#
He pops the boogie-woogie rag..the Chattanooga shoe-shine boy.

He charges you a nickel just to shine one shoe.

He makes the oldest kind of leather look like new.
    G#
You feel as though you wanna dance when he gets through..
       D#
he's a great big bundle of joy.
            A#                     G#                     D#
He pops the boogie-woogie rag..the Chattanooga shoe-shine boy.

CHORUS:
D#7    G#                                  D#
It's a wonder that the rag don't tear..the way he makes it pop.
    G#                                    A#
You ought to see him fan the air with his hoppity-hippity-hoppity-

hippity-hop-hop-hop.

#3.
   D#
He opens up for business when the clock strikes nine.

He likes to get up early when they're feelin' fine.
G#                                             D#
Everybody gets a little rise 'n shine with the great 

big bundle of joy.
            A#                     G#                      D#
He pops the boogie woogie rag..the Chattanooga shoe-shine boy.
