Beirut Boogie

(Joe Cassady & The West End Sound)

Joe Cassady
Is there none, is there none, none to help the widow’s son?
Is there none, is there none, none to dance to the morning sun?
None to dance to the morning sun?

It’s so bad, I’m leaving, it’s so bad you’re coming too,
It’s so bad I just want to break even, even if you don’t want me to,
Even if you don’t want me to . . .

Chorus:
I’ll do the Beirut Boogie, left foot in.
Beirut Boogie, right heel too.
Beirut Boogie, throw your arms in the air,
Arms in the air the air and I’ll boogie with you.

I’m going down to see a band, Franz Ferdinand is playing too,
I’ll take my rifle, take my hymnal, it’s just a Sunday afternoon,
Just a Sunday afternoon . . .

Take a little trip, have a little vision, take a little vision down to the club,
Ring around, ring around, we’ll all fall down then we’ll all make love,
All fall down then we’ll all make love . . .

So is there none, is there none, none to help the widow’s son?
Is there none, is there none, none to dance to the morning sun?
None to dance to the morning sun?
