(B. Cummings)

|
Sure like to boogie after death comes callin¡¯
|
Sure like rockin¡¯ when I¡¯m far away
|
"Ooh Pooh Pah Doo" is lettin¡¯ Jesse watch the heavens
|
Paint another picture while you¡¯re turning grey
|
|
Everything I knew about was always American
|
Skip a stone lightly and you¡¯ll be okay
|
Never really get my rockin¡¯ feet to movin¡¯
|
Till somebody¡¯s singing "Not Fade Away"
|
|
Got mystery train fever, and I¡¯m a believer
|
And go down Moses, and I¡¯ll send you red roses
|
Despair, and death at an early age
|
|
You sang about truckin¡¯ and the band had it movin¡¯
|
If you were a lizard then you might be gone
|
A little self-indulgence never moved a mountain
|
Don¡¯t need the fiddler yellin¡¯ "Yeah, right on!"
|
|
You¡¯re my angel from a wet salvation
|
You can buy and sell me so you shine me on
|
Your mama worked hard and the acid made you think about it
|
Why, mother water, are the days all gone
|
|
Got mystery train fever, and I¡¯m a believer
|
And go down Moses, and I¡¯ll send you red roses
|
Despair, and death at an early age
|
