I Want A Rock And Roll Guitar (1960) |
| Spoken: |
| A ho ho ho |
| It was the night before Christmas and everthing was real quiet |
| So I thought I’d take myself a little walk at Christmas Eve Night |
| I was makin' it on down the street, when to my surprise I saw this |
| Little bitty cat with big old tears in his eyes |
| Now I could see he was standin' in front of this music store and looked |
| Real brought down. |
| I could hear what he was sayin' he didn’t know I was |
| Around… he say. |
| I want a rock n' roll guitar |
| With a big bass string |
| I want a rock n' roll guitar |
| So I can play the thing |
| I wanna be on t. |
| v |
| Like a rock n' roll star |
| I want Santa Claus to bring me |
| A rock n' roll guitar |
| (spoken) |
| Hahaha.so-a I walked over to him-a 'cause I understand |
| I, I thought I’d cheer him up so I say, 'Look-a-here little man |
| A-you don’t want no rock n' roll guitar, you want a six gun like |
| The Lone Ranger has, so you can run around sayin’a hi ho Silver |
| Kimo sabe, and all that cowboy jazz' |
| Or how would you like old Santa to bring you a little dump truck |
| So you could go around a-dumpin' thing? |
| And he say… |
| 'Man, I don’t want no dumptruck, I want somethin' that swings |
| He say… |
| (sings) |
| I want a rock n' roll guitar |
| With a big bass string |
| I want a rock n' roll guitar |
| So I can play that thing |
| I wanna be on t. |
| v |
| Like a rock n' roll star |
| I want Santa Claus to bring me |
| A rock n' roll guitar |
| Spoken: |
| Ha, ha, wait a minute there, wait a minute, hold on, hold on I say |
| I say, 'Hold on there little fellow, ah why don’t you be like the little |
| Chicks and cats and wish for a space helmet or a rocketship or something |
| Wild like that?' |
| And you know what he say? |
| He say… 'Look here dad, I |
| Don’t want no plane or no train or nothin' square like that, that ain’t |
| The lick for me, when I awake this whole place is gonna shake, 'cause you |
| Know what I want under my Christmas tree!' |
| He say!.. |
| (sings) |
| I want a rock n' roll guitar |
| With a big bass string |
| I want a rock and roll guitar |
| So I can play the thing |
| I wanna be on t. |
| v |
| Like a rock n' roll star |
| I want Santa Claus to bring me |
| A rock n' roll guitar |
| Ho ho ho, crazy little fellow, crazy, yeah, say… |
