Song Meaning of “Shoobie Oobie” by Rosco Gordon
“Shoobie Oobie” by Rosco Gordon tells the story of a man’s journey through life and the things he learns along the way. He starts out singing about how he travels around the country, meeting different people and gaining new perspectives. He speaks of being a shoobie oobie, which means he is always learning and growing in life. As he sees more of the world, he has a greater appreciation for the love he finds. He talks about how he’s been let down in the past and has had his heart broken, but he is still keeping his faith and believing in the power of love. In the end, he admits that he’s still looking for the one, “Shoobie oobie that’s true.” The song serves as a reminder to keep an open heart and mind and never give up hope of finding love.
