Carl Perkins Rockabilly Fever Lyrics

Lord, it came rollin' out of Memphis Like a hurricane or Texas tornado It came rollin' out of Memphis Like a hurricane or a Texas tornado Yeah, it did... And they called us rockabillies Long before they called it rock 'n' roll We took a little country music Put some pop in and dressed it up in soul We took a little country music Put some pop in and dressed it up in soul That's all we did... And they called us rockabillies Long before they called it rock 'n' roll Yeah, rockabilly fever Looks like it's coming back again, mm-mm Ah, rockabilly fever Look out, it might get you my friend If that fever starts to get you Lay back son, you just might explode If that fever starts to get you Lay back son, you just might explode Look out... And they called us rockabillies Long before they called it rock 'n' roll That's what we were, play it guitar, here we go... Well, Elvis started shakin' And the whole world shook a little too I said Elvis started shakin' And the whole world shook a little bit too He said, that's all right mama Mama, don't you step on my blue suede shoes That's what the boy said... Oh, rockabilly fever Looks like it's coming back again Won't it be fun.. Rockabilly fever Look out, it might get you my friend If that fever starts to get you Just lay back son, you just might explode If that fever starts to get you Just lay back son, you just might explode Well, they called it rockabilly Long before they called it rock 'n' roll, oh yeah Come on let's rock Come on let's roll Everybody let's rock Everybody let's rock
