RHYTHM AND BOOZE (Buck Owens) CORKY JONES (PEP 107, 1956)
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Well, it was rock 'n' roll rhytm and a bottle of booze And a wild wild woman that was hot on the loose Well, she warned me once and then she warned me twice But that woman found out that I don't take advice It was rhythm rhythm rhythm and booze Rhythm rhythm rhythm and booze To tell the truth baby, it was rhythm and booze
If I'd listened to my mama, if I'd listened to my dad I'd be a-sleepin' on a soft feathered bed But there's just some things that a man can't be told And it's me for one, and I just had to be showed Rhythm rhythm rhythm and booze Rhythm rhythm rhythm and booze To tell the truth baby, it was rhythm and booze
I lost my baby and then I lost my stack I didn't mind so much until I lost my Cadillac I'll give up my dancin' and I'll give up my booze If you come home honey, I'll even throw away my blue suede shoes Rhythm rhythm rhythm and booze Rhythm rhythm rhythm and booze To tell the truth baby, it was rhythm and booze Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
