What Wondrous Love is this?
Oh my Soul, Oh my Soul!
What Wondrous Love is this?
Oh my Soul!
What wondrous Love is this
That cause the LORD of Bless
To bare the Dreadful Cruse
For my Soul, For my Soul!
Get back in front and put some hair oil on
Buddy Holly was singin’ his very last song
With your arms around your girl, you’d try and sing along
You felt pretty good (woo!)
You really had a good time
Hot Patootie, bless my soul
I really love that rock and roll

Just let me hear some of that rock and roll music
Any old way you choose it
It’s got a backbeat, you can’t lose it
Any old time you use it
It’s gotta be rock and roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me
Rock 'n roll is here to stay,
It will never die
It was meant to be that way,
Though I don’t know why
I don’t care what people say,
Rock 'n roll is here to stay
I Dig Rock And Roll Music
I Could Really Get It On In That Scene.
I Think I Could Say Somethin’ If You Know What I Mean
But If I Really Say It, The Radio Won’t Play It
Unless I Lay It Between The Lines!
Well, I gotta hear an oldie like [Chuck_Berry: “Johnny B. Goode”] , yeah
You know it gets me in the mood, yeah I knew it would
This here radio’s got to make it right, yeah
Anybody wanna rock tonight?
Crocodile rocking is something shocking
When your feet just can’t keep still
I never knew me a better time and I guess, I never will
Oh, lawdy mama those Friday nights
When Suzie wore her dresses tight
Crocodile rocking was out of sight
Gonna have fun in the city
Be with my girl she’s so pretty
She looks fine tonight
She is out of sight to me
(Tonight) I spend my bread
(Tonight) I lose my head
(Tonight) I got to get tonight
Monday I have Friday on my mind
Well ev’ry Friday night, there’s a band that you gotta hear
Just a dollar ticket in and twenty-five cents a beer
They play rock n’ roll music like it hasn’t been rocked for years
Another Saturday night and I ain’t got nobody
I got some money cause I just got paid
How I wish I had someone to talk to
I’m in an awful way
It’s a Saturday’s night at the world
I am thinking about a girl
And how useless to search it becomes
When you seek all the answers in one.
Saturday’s Night at the World – Mason Williams
-“BB”-
Late at night, a bunch of us were hungry for a snack
We stopped at an eatery, and sat way in the back
We all ordered stuff to drink, some coffee, milk and Cokes
Talked about some worldly things, and told some dirty jokes
Those were the days, my friend
We thought they’d never end
We’d sing and dance forever and a day
We’d live the life we choose
We’d fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way
I wish, I wish, I wish in vain
That we could sit simply in that room again
Ten thousand dollars at the drop of a hat
And I’d give it all gladly if our lives could be like that
Bob Dylan’s Dream
Backward, O backward, turn time in thy flight!
Make me a child again, just for tonight.
Can it be that it was all so simple then?
Or has time re-written every line?
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we?
Could we?
In the mornin you go gunnin’
For the man who stole your water
And you fire till he is done in
But they catch you at the border
And the mourners are all sangin’
As they drag you by your feet
But the hangman isn’t hangin’
And they put you on the street
Yeah, you go back, Jack, do it again
Wheel turnin’ 'round and 'round
You go back, Jack, do it again
Find a wheel, and it goes round, round, round,
As it skims along with a happy sound,
As it goes, along the ground, ground, ground,
‘Till it leads you to the one you love!
All aboard! The honeymoon express is leavin’,
All aboard! You’re starry-eyed with love light gleamin’,
All aboard! And while you dream the dreams you’re dreamin’,
Listen to the music of love’s wheels.
little known and rarely heard lyrics to the 1960s instrumental Wheels – Billy Vaughn
(…one of the advantages of having had a mother who used to sing live on the radio back in the 1940s and early '50s.)

This wheel’s on fire
Rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin
This wheel shall explode !
