[edit]
He was a famous trumpet man from out Chicago way
He had a boogie style that no one else could play
He was the top man at his craft
But then his number came up and he was gone with the draft

He's in the army now, blowin' reveille
He's the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B
They made him blow a bugle for his Uncle Sam
It really brought him down because he couldn't jam

The captain seemed to understand
Because the next day the cap' went out and drafted a band
And now the company jumps when he plays reveille
He's the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B

A-toot, a-toot, a-toot-diddelyada-toot
He blows it eight to the bar in boogie rhythm
He can't blow a note unless the bass and guitar is playin' with 'im
He makes the company jump when he plays reveille
He's the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B

He was our boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B

And when he plays he makes the company jump eight to the bar
He's the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B

Toot-toot-toot, toot-diddelyada, toot-diddelyada
Toot, toot, he blows it eight to the bar
He can't blow a note if the bass and guitar isn't with 'im
And the company jumps when he plays reveille
He's the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B

He puts the boys asleep with boogie every night
And wakes 'em up the same way in the early bright
They clap their hands and stamp their feet
Because they know how he plays when someone gives him a beat
He really breaks it up when he plays reveille
He's the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B

Da doo da da doo da da da, da doo da da doo da da da
Da doo da da doo da da da, da doo da da doo da da
And the company jumps when he plays reveille
He's the boogie woogie bugle boy of Company B

The Andrews Sisters biography

The Andrews Sisters were the most successful female vocal group of the first half of the 20th century in the U.S. with 113 singles making it to the charts between 1938-1951, an average of more than eight per year.

Their close-harmony style, intricate vocal arrangements and rhythmic ability mirrored the sound of the swing bands that were their chief competition in their heyday. But, in reality, they had no competition. No other female vocal group, and very few male ones, came close to their success from the late '30s to the early '50s, an era when first big bands and then solo singers dominated popular music.

Although they were well-established by the time the U.S. entered World War II, their optimistic sound made them perfect boosters of the war effort, remained closely identified with the war years, remembered as wearing military uniforms and singing their signature song, "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy."
