singer, songwriter, rock 'n' roller
Got a gal named Katie,
Got a gal named Sue,
They can't hold a candle
To my dog named Blue.
Got a crazy rhythm,
Got a crazy sound;
Saddle up my pony,
I'm glory bound.
Sleepin' in the kitchen'
Got my feet in the hall;
Got a greenback dollar,
Gonna have a ball.
Got chicken on Sunday,
Gonna fill my plate;
Got a first class ticket
To the pearly gates.
Don't be discouraged,
Don't you be blue,
Friends in high places
Lookin' out for you.
The Purple People Eater
A hit when I was born,
And they just don't write songs
Like that anymore.
Hello Central,
Give me 619,
I saw the sky come falling
Out by the county line.
Go tell aunt Fannie,
Go tell Uncle Joe;
Rollin' down the highway
To a heart of gold.
Don't be discouraged,
Don't you be blue;
Friends in high places
Lookin' out for you.
The Purple People Eater
A hit when I was born,
And they just don't write songs
Like that anymore.
