A Swallow Flyin

A Swallow Flyin' In The Sky

Long Black Jackets

(A. Gourmelon - S. Pellet, SFAX/CASTLE RECORDS, 2002)

I forget my miseries with the rockabilly
The radio's on and plays a song of Billy Fury
Gene Bill Eddie still on my heart oh yeah

Sandy puts fire on stage with sugaree
We get silly when Matchbox sing marie marie
And mister Cavan is a star

Just like the Edwardian Teds
Who grave on their hearts
A swallow flyin' in the sky
Just like the Edwardian Teds
I believe and I'm free
Well as a swallow yes I do

The killer will always stay in my memories
His boogie boogie woogie makes me feel crazy
And Buddy Holly shines in me oh yeah

I forget my miseries with the rockabilly
The jukebox screams hey babe let's have a party
And Elvis Presley is not dead

Just like the Edwardian Teds
Who grave on their hearts
A swallow flyin' in the sky
Just like the Edwardian Teds
I believe and I'm free
Cause rock'n'roll is still alive

Yeah, rock'n'roll will never die
