Wanna Rock and Roll

Lyrics

Last night I went down to the railroad tracks
 To watch that train roll by
 99 cars screaming into the dark
 I heard the lonesome whistle cry
 With her name on my arm and the rain coming down
 I kissed her like it was the first time
 I took her down to the railroad tracks, and her red, red lips touched mine
 She said,"I wanna rock and roll
 Wanna hoochie coo
 Shake that thing
 Baby, love me too"
 The woman's got a walk to make a man cry, throw back his head and howl
 Ruby red lips, liquid hips, more than the law will allow
 If I told her once, I told her twice
 I must of told her a thousand times
 I got a red hot mind and a cold black heart
 I am the jealous kind
 The woman just laughed and said, "Sweet Daddy
 You know you are the only one
 You're my smooth lover boy, my heartache and joy
 Com on let's have some fun."
 It was early last night, I went downtown
 To a place called Johnny's Last Stand
 Through the blues and the smoke
 I saw her on the dance floor
 She's with another man
 The dead man's name was Louie Dupree
 I pushed the little button on my knife
 I walked up and said, "Hello boys and girls
 Have you enjoyed your life?"
 It's time to rock and roll
 Wanna hoochie coo
 Shake that thing
 Baby, love me too
 Last night I went down to the railroad tracks
 To watch that train roll by
 99 cars screaming into the dark
 I heard the lonesome whistle cry
 With her name on my arm and the rain coming down
 I kissed her for the very last time
 I took her down to the railroad track and her dead, red lips touched mine
 I wanna rock and roll
 Wanna hoochie coo
 Shake that thing
 Baby, love me too
 Rock and roll
 Hoochie coo
 Shake that thing
 Baby, love me too
