They used to call me rockabilly all of us ran through
When elvis opened up the door with a pup-and-pup-and-boo
I didn't ever play much rock and roll cause I got so much country in my soul

But I'm a different man for lovin' you and I take a shot at what you ask me to
And baby I will rock and roll with you if I have to

Memphis 1955 on union avenue
Carl and jerry and charlie and roy and billy riley too
A new sun risin' on the way we sing and a world of weirdo's waitin' in the wings

But I love you and though I'm past 42 there are still a few things yet I didn't do
And baby I will rock and roll with you if I have to
