Cherokee Boogie Lyrics


A Cherokee chief as he dances along
Sings an Indian boogie to a white man's songSingin' "Hey-ho-a-lina"
(Hey-ho-a-lina)
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina
(Hey-ho-a-lina)
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina" oh oh no it's in our headsWell, he dances over here and he dances over there
Now he's dancing with a squal called Standing BearSingin' "Hey-ho-a-lina"
(Hey-ho-a-lina)
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina"
(Hey-ho-a-lina)
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina" oh oh no it's in our headsWell, he dances on the hill and he dances on the rock
But he keeps on shaking that tomahawkSingin' "Hey-ho-a-lina"
(Hey-ho-a-lina)
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina"
(Hey-ho-a-lina)
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina" oh oh no it's in our headsWell, he sings a little soft and he sings a little loud
With his tom-tom beatin' so big and proudSingin'"Hey-ho-a-lina"
(Hey-ho-a-lina)

Singin'"Hey-ho-a-lina"
(Hey-ho-a-lina)
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina" oh oh no it's in our headsWell, he dances over here and he dances over there
Now he's dancing with a squal called Standing BearSingin' "Hey-ho-a-lina"
(Hey-ho-a-lina)
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina"
(Hey-ho-a-lina)
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina" oh oh no it's in our headsNow, he's a Cherokee Chief as a you all might know
When he keeps on a singing 'Niven-yo'Singin'"Hey-ho-a-lina"
(Hey-ho-a-lina)
Singin'"Hey-ho-a-lina"
(Hey-ho-a-lina)
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina" oh oh no it's in our heads

John Gale "Johnny" Horton (April 30, 1925 – November 5, 1960) was an American country music and rockabilly singer most famous for his semi-folk, so-called "saga songs" which began the "historical ballad" craze of the late 1950s and early 1960s. With them, he had several major successes, most notably in 1959 with the song "The Battle of New Orleans" (written by Jimmy Driftwood), which was awarded the 1960 Grammy Award for Best Country & Western Recording.
