King Creole

King Creole - Dancing Rock Legends

Theres a man in new orleans

Who plays rock and roll

Hes a guitar man

With a great big soul

He lays down a beat

Like a ton of coal

He goes by the name of king creole

You know hes gone gone gone

Jumpin like a catfish on a pole

You know hes gone gone gone

Hip shaking king creole

When the king starts to do it

It's as good as done

He holds his guitar

Like a tommy gun

He starts to growl

From way down his throat

He bends a string

And thats all she wrote

You know he's gone gone gone

Jumpin like a catfish on a pole

You know he's gone gone gone

Hip shaking king creole

Well he sings a song about a crowded hole

He sings a song about a jelly roll

He sings a song about meat and greens

He wails some blues about new orleans

You know he's gone gone gone

Jumpin like a catfish on a pole

You know he's gone gone gone

Hip shaking king creole

Well he plays something evil

Then he plays something sweet

No matter what he plays

You got to get up on your feet

When he gets the rockin fever

Baby heaven sakes

He don't stop playin

Till his guitar breaks

You know he's gone gone gone

Jumpin like a catfish on a pole

You know he's gone gone gone

Hip shaking king creole

King creole gone go

You know he's gone gone gone

Jumpin like a catfish on a pole
