Street Rat

[No lyrics]

. . .


Just let me hear some of that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it, any old time you use it
It's gotta be rock and roll music if you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me.

I've got no kick against modern jazz unless they try to play it too darn fast
And lose the beauty of the melody until they sound just like a symphony.

That's why I got for that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it, any old time you use it
It's gotta be rock and roll music if you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me.

I took my loved one over 'cross the tracks, so she can hear my man await a sax
I must admit they have a rockin' band, man they were goin' like a hurricane.

That's why I got for that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it, any old time you use it
It's gotta be rock and roll music if you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me.

Way down South they have a jubilee, the jockey folks they had a jamboree
They're drinking homebrew from a watercup, the folks are dancin', got all shook up.

And started playin' that rock and roll music, any old time you use it
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it, any old time you use it
It's gotta be rock and roll music if you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me.

Don't care to hear them play a tango, I'm in the mood to take a mambo
It's way too early for the congo, so keep a-rockin' that piano.

That's why I got for that rock and roll music, any old way you use it
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it, any old time you use it
It's gotta be rock and roll music if you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me.

Try to see it my way
Do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on ?
While you see it your way
Run the risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone
We can work it out, we can work it out.

Think of what you're saying
You can get it wrong and still you think that it's alright
Think of what I'm saying
We can work it out and get it straight or say goodnight
We can work it out, we can work it out.

Life is very short and there's no time
For fussing and fighting my friend
I have always thought that it's a crime
So I will ask you once again.

Try to see it my way
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
While you see it your way
There's a chance that we may fall apart before too long
We can work it out, we can work it out.

Life is very short and there's no time
For fussing and fighting my friend
I have always thought that it's a crime
So I will ask you once again.

Try to see it my way
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
While you see it your way
There's a chance that we may fall apart before too long
We can work it out, we can work it out.

If the rain comes, they run and hide their heads
They might as well be dead
If the rain comes, if the rain comes.

When the sun shines, they slip into the shade
And sip their lemonade
When the sun shines, when the sun shines.

Rain, I don't mind
Shine, the weather's fine.

I can show you that when it starts to rain
Everything's the same
I can show you, I can show you.

Rain, I don't mind
Shine, the weather's fine.

Can you hear me that when it rains and shines
It's just a state of mind ?
Can you hear me ? Can you hear me ?

There 'Tis

Let me be your lovemaker
Let me be your soul shaker
Let me be your lovemaker
Let me be your soul shaker

Around this time last summer
when you and I first met
I thought I was cool
Living by the rules
Trying to play hard to get.

So you found some good-time chick
To give you the love you needed.
I didn't know a thing
about the thrills love could bring
I was young, selfish, and conceited.

I know you don't think I'm ready
But open your eyes and see.
As sure as my name is Betty
I can love away all your misery!

Let me be your lovemaker
Let me be your soul shaker
Why don't ya, Let me be your lovemaker
Let me be your soul shaker

About this time last year
I was blind to all the good things you said.
The sweet words you spoke
I took them for a joke
Though they were strong enough raise the dead!

So you thought you wasted
Both your time and mine
But now I'm ready to do
What you want me to
Cause I'm your woman
And I ain't Lyin'

I know you don't think I'm ready, Ooo ooo
But open your eyes and see.
As sure as my name is Betty
I can love away all your misery HEE!

So, Let me (umh) be your lovemaker ( I need to be)
Let me be your soul shaker (umh)
Why don't ya, Let me be your lovemaker
Let me be your soul shaker

Why don't let me be it baby
Why don't ya let me be - Wooh OH
I wanna be, I got ta got ta be
Ooooooooo

Won't it be nice baby
If ya let me be your love maker
Let me be good to ya.

Honey, Honey, Yahhhhh!!!!!

Asked a girl what she wanted to be
She said : Baby, can't you see ?'
'I wanna be famous, a star of the screen'
'But you can do something in between'.

Baby you can drive my car, yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car and maybe I'll love you.

I told that girl that my prospects were good
And she said : 'Baby, it's understood'
'Working for peanuts is all very fine'
'But I can show you a better time'.

Baby you can drive my car, yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car and maybe I'll love you
Beep-beep mm beep-beep yeah.

Baby you can drive my car, yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car and maybe I'll love you.

I told that girl I could start right away
And she said : 'Listen baby, I've got something to say'
'I got no car and it's breaking my heart'
'But I've found a driver, that's a start'.

Baby you can drive my car, yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car and maybe I'll love you
Beep-beep mm beep-beep yeah
Beep-beep mm beep-beep yeah
Beep-beep mm beep-beep yeah
Beep-beep mm beep-beep yeah
Beep-beep mm beep-beep yeah.
