5 Boogie Pilgrim Songtext
von Elton John

Crime in the streets
I read about it everyday in the papers
And justice needs and justice wants
But just in times, yes, too late here

Oh, feels like I wasn′t born there
(Feels like I wasn't born there)
I feel just like a Boogie Pilgrim
Oh-huh, yeah

Boogie Pilgrim
Hustled to get it
To get it together
Down on the jive talk
Down on the weather
Boogie Pilgrim, oh
Brother I never felt better yeah
No, I′ve never felt better


Low life's complete
When you've lived that way out on the sidewalk
(Walking on the sidewalk everyday)
Let me tell, oh I got the speed
Baby you got the need, ah, huh
Ah the need in me needs nothing
(But you know that I need nothing)

But I know that you all want something
Oh, just like Boogie Pilgrim
Boogie Pilgrim

Boogie Pilgrim, hustled to get it
To get it together, down on the jive talk
Down on the weather
Boogie Pilgrim
Oh brother I never felt better, yeah
(Don′t cha know that I′ve never felt better)
I know I'm better
No, I′ve never, never, never felt better

Don't cha know that I′ve never felt better
Don't cha know that I′ve never felt better
Don't cha know that I never felt better
Don't cha know that I′ve never felt better

Boogie, Boogie, Boogie Pilgrim, yeah
Oh, lord I never felt better, yeah
(Don′t you know that I've never felt better)


Ooh hoo, ooh hoo, ooh hoo
Boogie Pilgrim, hustled to get it
To get it together, on the jive talk
Down on the weather
Boogie Pilgrim, yeah
Lord I never, never felt better, yeah
(Know that I never felt better)
Let me hear you all sing it

Ah, Boogie Pilgrim
A Boogie Pilgrim
Oh, Boogie Pilgrim
A Boogie Pilgrim
A Boogie Pilgrim
A Boogie Pilgrim
A Boogie Pilgrim
A Boogie Pilgrim

Boogie Pilgrim
Boogie Pilgrim
Boogie Pilgrim
Boogie Pilgrim
Woo!
A Boogie Pilgrim
A Boogie Pilgrim
A Boogie Pilgrim, woo-oo-ahh
Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Boogie Pilgrim, woo!
