The time has come to sing a song about what's going on
I don't know what day it is, but I know I'm alone
Livin' hand to mouth and shufflin' the beat
Keep your eyes open and an ear down to the street
'Cause meanwhile
I'm just rockin' my boogie
Meanwhile
I'm just rockin' my boogie
I'm just rockin' my boogie
Rockin' my boogie every day

The minutes seem like hours and the hours seem like days
But it don't make no difference 'cause I'll never change my ways
I don't care 'bout the future and I ain't hung up in the past
I'm livin' every day like it's gonna be my last
Meanwhile
I'm just rockin' my boogie
Meanwhile
I'm just rockin' my boogie
I'm just rockin' my boogie
Rockin' my boogie every day
Oh, rock your boogie, boy
♪
Go, go, go
♪
Everybody's screamin' and runnin' around
They say that the sky is falling and we've got to get down
Well, listen to me, people, don't you hang your head and cry
No matter what you do, you ain't never satisfied
'Cause meanwhile
I'm just rockin' my boogie
Meanwhile
I'm just rockin' my boogie
Meanwhile
I'm just rockin' my boogie
From New York to St. Louie
I'm rockin' my boogie every day
Meanwhile
Meanwhile
I said meanwhile
Meanwhile
