My only question is was he inspired by Chuck Berry, or Eddie Cochran? You be the judge:
Thirty Days, Chuck Berry
If I don’t get no satisfaction from the judge
I’m gonna take it to the FBI and voice my grudge
If they don’t give me no consolation
I’m gonna take it to the United Nations
I’m gonna see that you be back home in thirty days
Summertime Blues— Eddie Cochran
Well I didn’t go to work, told the boss I was sick
“Well you can’t use the car ‘cause you didn’t work a lick”
Sometimes I wonder what I’m a gonna do
But there ain’t no cure for the summertime blues
I’m gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation
I’m gonna take my problem to the United Nations
I like the phrasing of the Eddie Cochran song a lot better.
imagine Banky Moon’s oratory on this pressing “issue”
When I saw that headline, Eddie Cochran was the first thing that popped into my mind.
