Standard (EADGBE)
Hey baby wont you take a chance
Say that youll let me have this dance
Oh lets dance, lets dance
We'll do the twist and stomp, the mashed potato too
Any old dancing that you wanna do
Lets dance, lets dance
Hey baby if youre all alone
Say that youll let me walk you home
Lets dance, lets dance
We'll do the twist and stomp, the mashed potato too
Any old dancing that you wanna do
Lets dance, lets dance
(fast strumming the C then stop to go into NO PARTICULAR PLACE TO GO)
NO PARTICULAR PLACE TO GO:
Riding along in my automobile
My baby beside me at the wheel
I stole a kiss at the turn of a mile
My curiositys running wild
Cruisin and playin the radio
With no particular place to go
Riding along with my collar loose
Still trying to get her belt a-loose
All the way home I held a grudge
But the safety belt it wouldnt budge
Cruisin and playin the radio
(no chord) G E - ("WANDERER" opening)
With no particular place to go
THE WANDERER:
Well Im the type of guy who will never settle down
Where pretty girls are well you know that Im around
I kiss em and I love em cos to me their all the same
I hug em and I squeeze them, they dont even know my name
They call me the wanderer, yeah the wanderer
I roam around and round and round and round and round
They call me the wanderer, yeah the wanderer
I roam around and round and round and round and round
I HEAR YOU KNOCKIN':
You went away and left me long time ago
And now youre knocking on my door
I hear you knocking but you cant come in
I hear you knocking go back where you been
I begged you not to go but you said goodbye
Now youre tellin all your lies
I hear you knocking but you cant come in
I hear you knocking go back where you been
LUCILLE:
Lucille you dont do your daddys will
Lucille you dont do your daddys will
Aint nothing to you but I love you still
I woke up this morning, lucille was not in sight
Asked my friends about her, all their lips were tight
Lucille you dont do your daddys will
Aint nothing to you but I love you still
GREAT BALLS OF FIRE:
You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain
Too much love drives a man insane
You broke my will, oh what a thrill
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire
Kiss me baby, it feels good
Hold me baby, well I wanna love you like a lover should
Youre fine so kind
I gotta tell this world that youre mine, mine, mine, mine
I chew my nails and I twiddle my thumbs
I feel embarrassed but it sure is fun
Come on baby, you drive me crazy
Goodness gracious great balls of fire.
