Down in the city it's a pity what's there. All the kids in the gutter runnin' really bare How much money do I have to get To get me set where the jet set gets Chorus: Up on the hill where they do the boogie (dododododododo, the boogie) I wonder what they're doin' when they dodo the boogie And I wonder what I'm doin' here Down in the city if a-you ain't dead You better watch that man, he gonna bust your head Throw you over and leave you aloone He's a-twenty minutes late, He's gotta be back home (Chorus) The rat's in the alley and a roach on the floor A businessman huntin' for a two-bit whore I thought I heard some housewife say I gotta go up the hill for the PTA (Chorus) A-Some folks say that a hippie won't steal But I caught three in my corn field One had a flag and the other had a bomb And the third ol' boy was a-gettin' on home (Chorus) Now all I know about is a-what I read A-see it comin' at me on the TV screen Every time they boogie well it gives me a thrill But they always seem to do it way up on the hill (Chorus) Dodododododododododododododododo dodododdo do dodod dodo
