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 because I got so much country in my soul

But I´m a different man for loving 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 rising on the way we sing and a world of weirdos waiting in the wings

But I´m a different man for loving 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
