Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
|
|
I could really get off being in your shoes
|
I used to be stone sold on rhythm and blues
|
A heard of a place at the back of town
|
Where you really kick the shit when the sun goes down
|
|
I really got buzzed when your sister said
|
"Throw away them records `cause the blues is dead
|
Let me take you honey where the scene's on fire"
|
And tonight I learned for certain that the blues expired
|
|
Oh your sister can't twist but she can rock and roll
|
Out bucks the broncos in the rodeo-do
|
She's only sixteen but it's plain to see
|
She can pull the wool over little old me
|
Your sister can't twist but she can rock and roll
|
Your sister can't twist but she got more soul than me
|
|
Somebody help me `cause the bug bit me
|
Now I'm in heaven with the aching feet
|
But I'll be back tonight where the music plays
|
And your sister rocks all my blues away
|
|
I really got buzzed when your sister said
|
"Throw away them records `cause the blues is dead
|
Let me take you honey where the scene's on fire"
|
And tonight I learned for certain that the blues expired
|
