Guy Mitchell Miscellaneous Rock-a-billy Rock-A-Billy Guy Mitchell Written by Woody Harris and Eddie V. Deane Peaked at # 10 in 1957 This song title was the first hit to give a name to the unique combination of rock & country "hillbilly" music, as represented by dozens of hits pioneered by Sam Phillips' Memphis-based Sun Records label in the mid-1950s. CHORUS: Rock-a-billy, rock-a-billy, rock-a-billy, rock Rock-a-billy, rock-a-billy, rock, rock, rock Rock-a-billy, rock-a-billy, rock-a-billy, rock Rock-a-billy, rock-a-billy, rock, rock Some people think it came from Tennessee Then spread on out to the lone prairie It's the hillbilly rock, feeddlee dee Turns me inside out Gimme some CHORUS Hey, grab yourself a partner, lose the blues Wear your store-bought clothes and your stompin' shoes Better head for the hills, gonna blow my fuse Hooo, I'm gonna shout Gimme some CHORUS Since rock-a-billy swang the do-si-do And the gee-tar man chased the old banjo Leave the hoe for the crow, holler "Go, oh man, go" Wiggle like a trout Gimme some Rock-a-billy, rock-a-billy, rock-a-billy, rock Rock-a-billy, rock-a-billy, rock, rock, rock Rock-a-billy, rock-a-billy, rock-a-billy, rock Rock-a-billy, rock-a-billy, hoo!, rock, rock From the moment I feel this crazy beat Ya gotta lose control or you're two left feet Give me mountain juice, turn me loose Leave me wave my arms about Gimme some CHORUS BRIDGE Ya know what rock-a-billy's all about Ya know it's gonna make ya sing and shout Ya know you're gonna act like a crazy fool Who cares? It's cool Rock-a-billy, rock-a-billy, rock, rock |
