Eddie Wants to Rock |
Come on everybody, let’s go way back in time |
Let me introduce you to a friend of mine |
He couldn’t dance, he couldn’t sing |
But that boy would take a shot at anything |
He wrestled alligators with your man Dundee |
Well, he even threw a punch at Muhammad Ali |
(I've got a photograph to prove it) |
And tattooed on his butt was «I just wanna rock» |
I just wanna rock |
Jersey, St. Louis, then out to L. A |
Had to take a look at how the big boys play |
He gave his heart, he gave his soul |
And he spend a lotta money on rock and roll |
He grooved with the Doobies and he smoked a few |
If you had a sore back, well he’d fix that too |
And every mornin' when he got out of bed |
He’d walk up to the mirror, start shaking his head |
I could be digging drains but instead I’m just gonna rock |
Just gonna rock |
(Eddie wants to rock, Eddie wants to roll, come on Eddie!) |
Just gonna rock, just gonna rock |
It wasn’t all crazy, wasn’t all just fun |
Eddie took care of business when it had to be done |
He saved a few lives coming down the line |
And I’m sure real happy, one of them was mine |
I haven’t seen Eddie |
Been a long, long time |
And I really miss that old friend of mine |
But you can bet your bottom dollar |
That wherever he went |
He’ll be kicking up trouble |
It was money well spent |
Showing all the new kids on the block |
Hey kids, you just gotta rock! |
Just gotta rock |
(Eddie wants to rock, Eddie wants to roll, come on Eddie!) |
Hey you, just gotta rock |
I wonder whatever happened to that guy |
Man, we had some great times |
Well, hope you like your song, Eddie |
Eddie wanna rock, Eddie wanna roll |
Eddie wants to rock, Eddie wants to roll |
Wanna know a secret? |
I’ve still got Eddie Rabbit |
