"Hillbilly Boogie" is a wonderful tune with funny lyrics.
Alton & Rabon Delmore

"Hillbilly Boogie" was written by the Delmore Brothers to sing in a Fiddlers' Contest at Athens State University in Athens, AL. They not only won the contest with this song but were on their way to making musical history!

I know a fellow from that Alabama way
he plays the blues in a different sort of way
He’s got no piano for the A to the bar
but he picks out the boogie on his ole guitar
He plays the hillbilly boogie in a low down way
He can play the boogie, play it for me any ole day
Listen all you fellows if your gal’s kinda cold
She don’t want your loving & thinks your too bold
Make for a honky tonk & go there tonight
Play the Hillbilly Boogie and then you’ll do alright
She likes the Hillbilly Boogie in a low down way
She likes the Hillbilly Boogie play it for her every day
It’s just the Hillbilly Boogie
in the low down way
if’s just the Hillbilly Boogie
Play it for me any ole day
