Wanda Jackson
(Carl Perkins, THIS VERSION: CMH RECORDS, 2003)
Well, it came rollin' out of Memphis
 Like a hurricane on a Texas tornado
 Yeah, it came rollin' out of Memphis
 Like a hurricane on a Texas tornado
 And we called it rockabilly
 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 we called it rockabilly
 Long before they called it rock 'n' roll
Hey, rockabilly fever
 Looks like it's coming back again, aha
 Hey, rockabilly fever
 Look out, it might get you my friend
Now, if that fever starts to get you
 Lay back son, you just might explode
 Yeah, if that fever starts to get you
 Lay back son, you just might explode
 Well, we called it rockabilly
 Long before they called it rock 'n' roll
 That's all we were, play it guitar...
Well, Elvis started shakin'
 And the whole world shook a little too
 I remember that...
 Yeah, 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
Yeah, rockabilly fever
 Looks like it's coming back again
 That would be fun..
 Hey, rockabilly fever
 Look out, it might get you my friend
Now, if that fever starts to get you
 Lay back son, you just might explode
 Yeah, if that fever starts to get you
 Lay back son, you just might explode
 Well, we called it rockabilly
 Long before they called it rock 'n' roll, yeah
Come on let's rock
 Come on let's roll
 Everybody let's rock
 Everybody let's roll
 Yeah, we called it rockabilly
 Long before they called it rock 'n' roll
 Don't you forget it...
