Mama made my sister go to bed, about a quarter to nine, last night
She took down the covers, and she said "babe sleep real tight"
Along about twelve, heard feets a tippin'
And I peeped down the hall and I seen sister slippin'
Out the back door, down the alley, out of sight
Oh, go ahead on, go ahead on
Go ahead on, yeah go ahead on

I began to wonder what was goin' on around town, so late
Knew that gal didn't have no midnight date
I followed her down across the railroad track
To a jump they was havin' in a broke down shack
To the boogie, man the party is a-great
Oh, go ahead on, go ahead on
Go ahead on, yeah go ahead on
Oh, go ahead on, go ahead on
Go ahead on, yeah go ahead on

Slipped to the corner and I peeped thru a hole that was there, in the wall
Everybody jivin' and it wasn't no ordinary ball
She was shakin' and a-twistin' and a gettin' real gone
With the cats in the corner yellin' "go ahead on"
They was a-rockin', man you should a-heard them squall
Oh, go ahead on, go ahead on
Go ahead on, yeah go ahead on
Oh, go ahead on, go ahead on
Go ahead on, yeah go ahead on
Oh, go ahead on, go ahead on
