Billy was a rocker down in Baton Rouge
|
Liked to sing country in his tennis shoes
|
He grew up in the sixities on rock and roll
|
But he got him a gig in a country show
|
He travelled with them all across the USA
|
But one night in the middle of the set they say
|
He got his rockin' rhythm roots
|
And country confused
|
He sang the yodelin' blues
|
|
(Yodel)
|
|
Well the band thought Billy was a crazy fool
|
But that yodelin' thing he did was powerful cool
|
So they worked all week
|
And they got it just right
|
To play down at the club again Saturday night
|
And the crowd went screamin'
|
Crazy plum unglued
|
All the girls thought Billy was a happenin' dude
|
They said hey hey Billy
|
Do whatever you choose
|
Just sing the yodelin' blues
|
|
So they got a big bus and a semi too
|
A hit song, record deal, dream come true
|
You can see 'em on the TV
|
And the front page news
|
They're done payin' their dues
|
Long as Billy sings the yodelin' blues
|
