The lyrics are obscene? How would they know? No on can understand them!!

If you listen to the original version by Richard Berry & the Pharaohs, on the Flip label (#321, for you collectors), the words are quite clear. The tune was a local hit in Southern California in 1957.

If you listen closely, the band misses a beat, and it sounds like someone says "sh__!"

And I believe the 'lemon' lyric is from Robert Johnson's 'Traveling Riverside Blues' way back in the 30s. Another variation: "If you don't like my potatoes, don't go digging up my vine." And everyone's probably with the peach tree lyric.

You'd think I'd have known that. I'm a substitute teacher.
Thanks!

This more closely resembles the lyrics that most bands use.

Squeeze me baby, till the juice runs down my leg, The way you squeeze my lemon, I..I'm gonna fall right out of bed, Yeah.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN??? I don't get it! Plant (by way of Robert Johnson) was way too subtle.

Then you might appreciate this. Today I went into a high school drama classroom only to find that someone had defecated in the back of the room.

Please help.....

Tonite we're trying to determine who did that song in the mid 70's called "Rock On"......?

Something like, Hey kid, rock and roll.........Some echo parts and even a reference to James Dean? Another part like, soothe my soul..........

It's wonderful when children express themselves in this kind of original way, isn't it?

"Rock On" is by by David Essex. It first entered the charts in the UK in August of 1973 and then charted in the US in November of that year.
