| My mama told me when I was quite young
|
| Don’t be a bad boy and don’t run
|
| 'Cause he’s gonna get you
|
| He’s gonna get you
|
| So little girl that’s why I’m tellin' you
|
| Don’t you dare break my heart in two
|
| Or he’s gonna get you
|
| He’s gonna get you (Sing)
|
| THE BOOGIE MAN is gonna get you
|
| If you’re messin' around in the dark
|
| Playin' with my love and affection
|
| That ain’t smart, no that ain’t smart, oh So little girl that’s why I’m tellin' you
|
| Take my love, take my money
|
| But don’t you dare break my heart in two
|
| Or he’s gonna get you (He's gonna get you)
|
| He’s gonna get you (He's gonna get you) Sing
|
| THE BOOGIE MAN is gonna get you
|
