Mystery Train Kept A Rollin' |
| Well the train rolled into station about 1955 |
| I’ve never been to Memphis |
| But ohhhhh man alive |
| The town was really buzzin' |
| About this cat from Tennessee |
| The boy who shook his hips |
| Was such a shocking sight to see |
| He was a devil don’t you know |
| This greasy cat from Tupelo |
| Sit right back you rockin cats |
| And just enjoy the show |
| Aaaye, |
| I heard the whistle blowin |
| But it was so much more than that |
| There was a guitar and a singer |
| And this big bass they would slap |
| I saw Montana passin |
| And I waved g-bye (ohh-hoo) |
| Cause that mystery train done hooked me |
| Like old bourbon whiskey and rye |
| Yeaaaa |
| Mystery Train Kept A Rollin' (Rollin', Rollin') |
| Elvis Presley led the way |
| Mystery Train Kept A Rollin' (All night long) |
| Johnny Cash was shovelin' coal |
| Mystery Train Kept A Rollin' (Rollin', Rollin') |
| Jerry Lee he was the brake man |
| Mystery Train Kept A Rollin' (All night long) |
| Mr. Phillips ran the show |
| Todd Perkins punched my ticket |
| Well this train don’t never stop |
| Just hang around and listen boy |
| We’ll show you how to rock |
| Eeeee ooooo, ooooo oooa |
| I went to Mr. Perkins |
| This train sure rollin' fast |
| Well kid if can’t hold on |
| You ain’t never goin last |
| I told the man in black |
| To shovel on a little more coal (more coal) |
| I went and grabbed my guitar |
| Yelled, teach me how to rock-n-roll! |
| YEAAAA |
| Mystery Train Kept A Rollin' (Rollin', Rollin') |
| Elvis Presley led the way |
| Mystery Train Kept A Rollin' (All night long) |
| Johnny Cash was shovelin' coal |
| Mystery Train Kept A Rollin' (Rollin', Rollin') |
| Jerry Lee he was the brake man |
| Mystery Train Kept A Rollin' (All night long) |
| Mr. Phillips ran the show |
| Todd Perkins punched my ticket |
| Well this train don’t never stop |
| You just hang around and listen boy |
| We’ll show you how to rock |
| All right take it down a notch |
| Take it down one more notch |
| Cause I knew I was on a ride |
| That would take me to the top |
| Mystery Train Kept A Rollin' |
| And it ain’t never goin to stop |
| Train had hit a tunnel |
| Everthing got dark as night |
| Elvis whispered in my ear |
| It’s getting rough so hold on tight |
| This steamin locomotive |
| Man we almost jumped the track |
| Roy Orbison stood up and sang |
| We ain’t never turning back! |
| I said hey Roy hey Johnny hey Jerry Lee |
| Well now I really seee |
| Well Thank you for the ticket |
| I don’t want the fame |
| I just ride on this big — old — mystery — train |
| Mystery Train Kept A Rollin' (Rollin', Rollin') |
| Mystery Train Kept A Rollin' (All night long) |
| Get on board |
| Chuugg a chhuggga cchhhhhh chhhhh |
