Lordy Hoody - Tommy Blake

Lordy Hoody

Tommy Blake

(Blake - Hall - Adams, SUN 278, 1957)

Jukebox is moanin', rockin' and a-rollin'
Guitar twangin', someone started singin'
'Bout his baby, name of Sadie
When the joint starts to rockin'
The cats all start to boppin'
But I can't get with 'em
'Cause I ain't got the rhythm
So I sit here and listen to 'em
All night long, a-gazin'...

Hoody, hoody, hoody-hoody-hoody-hoody
Hoody, hoody, hoody-hoody-hoody-hoody
Hoody, hoody, hoody-hoody-hoody-hoody
Hoody, hoody, hoody-hoody-hoody-hoody
Hoody, hoody, hoody-hoody-hoody-hoody
Go cats, ohw yeah!

A courtin' lady, she said come with me, yeah
Quit your waitin', stop this hesitatin'
She should know that I'm too old for
Jumpin' and a-jivin', slippin' and a-slidin'
But I can't get with 'em
'Cause I ain't got the rhythm
So I sit here and listen to 'em
All night long, a-gazin'...

Hoody, hoody, hoody-hoody-hoody-hoody
Hoody, hoody, hoody-hoody-hoody-hoody
Hoody, hoody, hoody-hoody-hoody-hoody
Hoody, hoody, hoody-hoody-hoody-hoody
Hoody, hoody, hoody-hoody-hoody-hoody
Wow, one more time!
