Teddy Boy Rock

Teddy Boy Rock 'n' Roll

Crazy Cavan & The Rhythm Rockers

(Lyndon Needs, Rockhouse, 1975)

I got a long drape jacket and blue suede shoes
Rockin' and rollin' and boppin' the blues
Ducktail hair and a bootlace tie
Chicks go wild when I pass by
Teddy boy rock, teddy boy rock 'n' roll
Rock 'n' roll, rock 'n' roll

We're going to the club where the kids all meet
They'll all be gone to a crazy beat
As soon as a cool chick walks through the door
Rockin' and boppin' on a hardwood floor
Teddy boy rock, teddy boy rock 'n' roll
Rock 'n' roll, rock 'n' roll

When I go to work, my boss says I'm lazy
I'm stayin' on but my mama says I'm crazy
All the squares try to put me down
They ain't gonna stop me rockin' the town
Teddy boy rock, teddy boy rock 'n' roll
Rock 'n' roll, rock 'n' roll

Velvet on my collar, velvet on my cuff
Sometimes I think it just ain't enough
I got my name sewed, gonna shock the town
Bright lookin' yellow, wearing upside down
Teddy boy rock, teddy boy rock 'n' roll
Rock 'n' roll, rock 'n' roll

Well, teddy boy rock, teddy boy roll
Teddy boy rock, teddy boy roll
Teddy boy rock, teddy boy roll
Teddy boy rock, teddy boy roll
Teddy boy rock, teddy boy rock 'n' roll
