Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wanna be your mojo hand
I wanna be your back door man
I wanna know you know how much I want ya
And if you don't, I need to know why don't ya?
Down on the corner where the poor boys hang
The word is out, this ain't no sometime thang now
Be bop a lula, baby, don't look back
Big train from Memphis smoking down the track
[Verse 2]
So you were born and raised on rock and roll
I do detect a trace of blue-eyed soul
Crowley, Louisiana, void of everyday humdrum
I pledge allegiance to the people y'all come from
Crazy Cajuns thumpin' Big Mamou
The joint's a'jumpin' full of wang dang do now
Be bop a lula, baby, aus, mais oui
Think I could love you till the day I D
[Bridge]
Woke up this mornin' singing I feel fine
Your only daddy that'll walk the line
All liberated from the lovesick blues
And walking Spanish in my blue suede shoes
Yeah
[Verse 3]
I know your papa was a rolling stone
And you don't need another man done gone
Until you're ready for some wop bam boom
No steady Betty gonna dust my broom
And when you wake up in my big brass bed
Need I remind you what your homeboys said now
Be bop a lula, baby, please don't go
Diggy liggy la, diggy liggy lo
