Lyrics

Last night I went down to the railroad tracks To watch that train roll by 99 cars screaming into the dark I heard the lonesome whistle cry With her name on my arm and the rain coming down I kissed her like it was the first time I took her down to the railroad tracks And her red, red lips touched mine She said, "I wanna rock & roll Wanna hoochie coo Shake that thing Baby, love me do" The woman's got a walk to make a man cry Throw back his head and howl Ruby red lips, liquid hips More than the law will allow If I told her once, I told her twice I must have told her a thousand times I got a red hot mind and a cold black heart I am the jealous kind Where the woman just laughed and said, "Sweet Daddy You know you are the only one You're my smooth lover boy, my heartache and joy Come on let's have some fun" I wanna rock & roll Wanna hoochie coo Shake that thing Baby, love me do It was early last night, I went downtown To a place called Johnny's Last Stand Through the blues and the smoke, I saw her on the dance floor She's with another man The dead man's name was Louie Dupree I pushed the little button on my knife I walked up and I said, "Well hello boys and girls Have you enjoyed your life?" It's time to rock & roll Time to hoochie coo Time to shake that thing Baby, love me do Last night I went down to the railroad tracks To watch that train roll by 99 cars screaming into the dark I heard the lonesome whistle cry With her name on my arm and the rain coming down I kissed her for the very last time I took her down to the railroad track And her dead, red lips touched mine I wanna rock & roll Wanna hoochie coo Shake that thing Baby, love me do Wanna rock & roll Wanna hoochie coo Shake that thing Baby, love me do Baby, love me do Baby, love me do Baby, love me do Baby, love me do
