Robinson Crusoe Bop - Sonny Cole & The Rhythm Roamers

Robinson Crusoe Bop

Sonny Cole & The Rhythm Roamers

(Poss. S. Cole, EXCEL 124, 1957)

Well, Robinson Crusoe got shipwrecked at sea
He kept the count of his days on a big tall tree
He cut those notches from the bottom to the top
A lot of sleek wild lovin', he must have got
Everytime you go to paint the town
The sleek wild women are boppin' around
Blue-bop-a-lula sounds good to me
Even when you do it on an island in the sea
Blue-bop-a-lula, he must have got around
'Cause a-blue-boppin' women are rockin' the town

He lived on alone, he didn't know nobody
Till he met that wild man that he called Friday
They played all around and they went into swingin'
And where there's wild men, there's bound to be wild women
Some were short, some was tall
Believe me, those guys must have had a ball
Blue-bop-a-lula sounds good to me
Even when you do it on an island in the sea
Blue-bop-a-lula, they must have got around
'Cause blue-boppin' women are rockin' the town
(Rock cats, rock!)

No hot rod cars or two-tone shoes
And every night they bop the blues
The kind of bop they done to sweep you off your feet
And all they had was a tom-tom beat
Those two boys must have done all right
'Cause a-wild wild women are boppin' tonight
Blue-bop-a-lula sounds good to me
Even when you do it on an island in the sea
Blue-bop-a-lula, they must have got around
'Cause blue-boppin' women is a-rockin' this town
