    F
They used to call me rockabilly.
All of us ran through
When Elvis opened up the door.
Boo-bop-a-lop-bam-boo.

A#                                F
I didn't ever play much rock and roll,
      G7                            C7
'Cause I got so much country in my soul.

Chorus:
    A#                              F
But I'm a different man for lovin' you,
                                         A#
And I'd take a shot at what you asked me to.
C7                                     F
And, baby, I will rock and roll with you,
if I have to

Memphis 1955 on Union Avenue
Carl and Jerry and
Charlie and Roy
and Billy Riley too

A new sun rising on the way we sing and
a world of weirdos waiting in the wings

Chorus:
But I love you, and though I'm past forty-two,
There are still a few things yet I didn't do.
And, baby, I will rock and roll with you,
if I have to.
