A very original way of getting to know a girl!
I once jokingly challenged a lady to a hot dog eating contest, as described at the beginning of Verse 2.
Hot Dog Boogie
Words and Music by
Stan Anderson
She was walkin’ down Broadway lookin’ so pretty
I said “Is this your first time in Music City?
I’d love to take you out for dinner
I know this place that serves gourmet wienersâ€
We could have us a little contest
To see which one of us is best at
Doin’ the Hot Dog Boogie, the Hot Dog Boogie
Hot Dog Boogie, I said the Hot Dog Boogie
Hot Dog Boogie, sonofagun
We could make eatin’ hot dogs so much fun.
Now let me explain to ya just how this works.
You start at that end, and I’ll start at this
First one to the middle of the hot dog wins
If you eat the first one faster’n me
I’ll challenge you, best two out of three
We’ll fight like crazy for that last bite
Just keep on nibblin’ if it takes all night.
Doin’ the Hot Dog Boogie, the Hot Dog Boogie
Hot Dog Boogie, I said the Hot Dog Boogie
Hot Dog Boogie, sonofagun
We could make eatin’ hot dogs so much fun.
(Instrumental)
Doin’ the Hot Dog Boogie, the Hot Dog Boogie
Hot Dog Boogie, I said the Hot Dog Boogie
Hot Dog Boogie, sonofagun
We could make eatin’ hot dogs so much fun.
It’s a German invention, them folks are smart
And I’d like to thank ‘em from the bottom of my heart
It’s a wonderful dish just made for two
And I’d like to share one just with you
With a cool one they go down just fine
In Frankfurt they call that Frank ‘n’ Stein!
Doin’ the Hot Dog Boogie, the Hot Dog Boogie
Hot Dog Boogie, I said the Hot Dog Boogie
Hot Dog Boogie, sonofagun
We could make eatin’ hot dogs so much fun.
Hot Dog Boogie, the Hot Dog Boogie
Hot Dog Boogie, I said the Hot Dog Boogie
Hot Dog Boogie, sonofagun
We could make eatin’ hot dogs so much fun.
