Story Behind The Song
I recorded a cute and funky song last year that I did a bit of scatting at the end of the song. In the moment, I came out with the nonsensical sounds, boo-bi-bi. It was one of those moments that was fun and I left it in the recording. Some time later, I decided to give boo-bi-bi it's own song and came up with this camp-fire style, feel-good, sing-along song. In a brainstorming session with a new friend and co-writer, we developed the sing-along vibe.
Song Description
With the nonsensical hook, boo-bi-bi, an audience will hopefully enjoy this sing-along song. The lyrics are pretty easy to remember, so that an audience can join in singing it and feeling good doing so. There's an suggestion of thinking back about the 'old days', sitting around a campfire, singing with friends.

Lyrics
Boo-Bi-Bi
V 1: Fireflies light up'a summer yard.
Breeze as sweet as a million stars,
Every breathe is our reward.
How could we want for more?
Pre-C: Just for a moment, I can't hide,
How much I'm loving life tonight,
Makes me wanna sing,
"Boo-Bi-Bi. Come sing with me!"
Chorus: Oh, Lawdy. Lawdy. Boo-Bi-Bi!
Loving life 'n love tonight ....
Sing until the world's alright.
Lawdy. Lawdy. Boo-Bi-Bi.
V 2: Campfire nights, remember when
Sing alongs with all our friends.
One more time, 'r voices blend.
Way too soon, this night'll end.
Pre-C: Just for a moment, I can't hide,
How much I'm loving life tonight,
Makes me wanna sing,
"Boo-Bi-Bi. Ya'll sing with me!"
Chorus: Oh, Lawdy. Lawdy. Boo-Bi-Bi!
Loving life 'n love tonight ...
Sing until the world 's alright.
Lawdy. Lawdy. Boo-Bi-Bi!
Bridge: But when the world's out on the edge,
Danger, crazy walks the ledge,
Music is th' reason, rhyme,
Pulls us back up. one more time! Oh-oh-oh!
Outro: Campfire singing, one more time. Lawdy, lawdy, boo-bi-bi.
Happy days light up the night. Singin' like there's no tomorrow,
Like nobody here has sorrow. Lawdy, Lawdy. Boo-Bi-Bi.
Lovin' all the boo-bye-bye. Oh, Boo-Bi-Boo-Bi-Boo-Bye-Bye.
