ROCKABILLY TILL I DIE (H. Engel) I'll be rockabilly til I die I'll be rockabilly til I die I'm gonna get a Gretsch guitar and comb my hair up high I'll be rockabilly til I die Dragnett Dennis sang and slapped the bass Until somebody grabbed his girl and he jumped offstage While the band played right along he punched him in the jaw Then jumped back up and finished off the song I'll be rockabilly til I die... The owner of the club was gettin' mad The place was empty and he said where's all your fans Then I heard a rumblin' sound down the main street of town It was the Roadmen Car Club come to bail me out I'll be rockabilly til I die Art Adams finished off the show But a bad drunk didn't want the band to go Then to everyone's surprise, sweet Tommie dropped that guy With a full beer bottle right between the eyes I'll be rockabilly til I die...

ALL HOPPED UP (H. Engel) I'm all hopped up - He's all hopped up I'm all hopped up - He's all hopped up I'm all hopped up - He's all hopped up I'm all hopped up - He's all hopped up Well c'mon pretty baby let's go 'cos I'm all hopped up Come screamin' into town on the 40 Grab the drummer with the pinup on his big bass drum Strap the double bass to the roof and then Make the Cadillac Lounge about a minute to ten Plug in my Gretsch and tip my hat to the crowd Count the fellas in and burn the whole place down I'm all hopped up - He's all hopped up... There's a line of gals dancin' in front of the stage Lookin' like Marilyn and Bettie Page But my baby's got a look that's all her own She's sultry and voluptuous and real high-tone The gals don't like 'cos she's got it all Y'know my baby she's a livin' doll I'm all hopped up - He's all hopped up... 2AM I'm still stoked from the show So I grab my baby and away we go A little after hours speakeasy club Where they sneak you shots of rye in a paper cup The joint's really jammed and it's startin' to hop The band's pretty old but they sure can rock I'm all hopped up - He's all hopped up... Head down the main drag about twenty to five Make the scene with the fellas and the streets alive Hang on the corner grab a dog and then Stumble back to the drummer's and fall down dead I'll fall asleep at my desk come Monday at nine But man I'm havin' me a real good time I'm all hopped up - He's all hopped up...

CRASH THE HOP (H. Engel) I hear the rich kids are gonna have a dance tonight Let's stop by and show 'em how to do it right Hope the quarterback tries to start a fight There's a big punch bowl but it needs a little kick Pour in some whiskey that's a pretty neat trick Make that kid drink until he gets real sick Cheerleader Jenny had nothin' to say When I tried to talk nice to her everyday Now Johnny's got her cornered and she can't get away Miss Sawyer always put me out in the hall Now she's inchin' towards the door with her back against the wall Actin' real scared but I know she wants to ball

HONEY DON'T COOL OFF ON ME (H. Engel) Honey don't cool off on me, you know I wanna feel your fire Honey don't cool off on me, you know I wanna feel your fire Speak to me in a sultry voice with your pretty eyes full of desire On the night we met when we started to pet you came on like a ball of flame On the night we met when we started to pet you came on like a ball of flame I looked up through my rear window and the stars were spelling out your name Honey don't cool off on me... I used to come and see you at work and you'd lead me to the floor above I used to come and see you at work and you'd lead me to the floor above Hot vacant office on the second floor was our sweltering jungle of love Honey don't cool off on me...

I KNOW YOU HEAR ME CALLING (H. Engel) Girl I know you hear me calling you, you better tell me where you at Girl I know you hear me calling you, you better tell me where you at Better not think that you'll ever leave me 'cos you won't get away with that Babe you better not be back to doin' what you always done before Babe you better not be back to doin' what you always done before Better hope I never catch you slippin' outta your back door Girl I know you hear me calling you... Girl when I catch you I'm gonna grab you and throw you right across my back Girl when I catch you I'm gonna grab you and throw you right across my back I don't care how you kick and scream I'm gonna drag you back down to my shack Girl I know you hear me calling you...

ROCKABILLY TILL I DIE (BANNED VERSION) (H. Engel) I'll be rockabilly till I die I'll be rockabilly till I die I'm gonna get a Gretsch guitar and comb my hair up high I'll be rockabilly till I die Sean was playin' on the street to make his rent I stopped to listen though I didn't have a cent Man that cat could blow on his beat up saxophone And I said man you gotta come and play the show (Sean Winter Solo) I'll be rockabilly till I die... Andy started out a Rockin' Fool Then he cut off all his hair and played the blues But he came back around to that rockabilly sound And now he plays just like he did in '82 (Andy Graffiti Solo) I'll be rockabilly till I die... See that fella there, Big Daddy Bo If you saw him on the street you'd never know 'Neath his Clark Kent poker face, he's an animal on the bass And he makes the women swoon and faint in droves (Big Daddy Bo Solo) I'll be rockabilly till I die... My kid used to think I was a square When I sang Elvis songs and put grease in my hair But now hen knows the score, he don't tease me like before And he wants to play guitar like Scotty Moore (Aidan Engel Solo) I'll be rockabilly till I die...
