How come the lyrics for Boogie Thing have been removed from all lyric sites?

No idea, but I wrote them out for the new site:

For miles around you can hear the drums,
With hollowed logs and old tom-toms.
Right from the jungle so loud and plain,
Let's get aboard the boogie train.

It's a Boogie Thing,
It's a Boogie Thing.
It's a Boogie Thing,
Boogie all night long
(All night long)

Went to a dance the other night,
The Boogie Band was out of sight.
The music was funky,
And the band was tight.
So we Boogie, Boogie, Boogie,
till the fall of daylight*
*Correction needed, possibly also "till the broad daylight"

It's a Boogie Thing,
It's a Boogie Thing.
It's a Boogie Thing,
Boogie all night long
(All night long)

I'm moving and a-grooving with the Blues Brothers Band,
The hottest thing in all the land.
We got Steve Cropper,
We got Duck Dunn,
Come on baby lets have some fun.

It's a Boogie Thing,
It's a Boogie Thing.
It's a Boogie Thing,
Boogie all night long
(All night long)
