Flat Foot Floogie (with a Floy Floy)

"Flat Foot Floogie (With a Floy Floy)" was a 1938 jazz song, originally written and performed by Slim Gaillard.

The original song was called "Flat Foot Floozie", with the 'floy-floy' being slang for a venereal disease. The word 'floozie' was changed into 'floogie' to allow it be to played on the radio.
The title for the 1938 The Three Stooges movie, Flat Foot Stooges, is a pun on this song's title.

Oh, the flat foot floogie with a floy, floy,
Flat foot floogie with a floy, floy,
Flat foot floogie with a floy, floy,
Floy doy, floy doy, floy doy.
