Bob Seger: Old Time Rock and Roll

[Fiji Hill]

Follow the Rock--The Bay Bops (1958)

These lyrics make reference to 25 song titles. How many can you find?

Duck back in the alley with Long Tall Sally;
Take her up on a mountain to a sudden valley.
Roll over Beethoven till your face turns blue,
Shake a hand, kiss Speedoo, with the blue suede shoes.
Make a flying saucer out of Maybelline.
That’s how you follow the rock.

Rock around the clock in an old gown,
Take a flat-topped head and shave it round.
Make a band of gold from a hollow stone,
Get stranded in the jungle, ride a seesaw home.
Find out why fools fall in love.
That’ how you follow the rock.

Then go a thousand miles away to Blueberry Hill,
Do a rock and roll waltz on a window sill;
Ask why, baby, my doll’s all shook up?
This ought to bring you luck.

Make a pledge of love to a party doll,
Find 99 ways to make a toll call.
Get a teenage crush on Marianne,
Now don’t be cruel; do the best you can.
Rock around your baby, never, never stop.
That’s how you follow the rock.

Jump back, baby.
That’s how you follow the rock.

[Kathy in Alaska]

A great oldie! Thanks, lightman...((HUGS))

[Fiji Hill]

Dizzy, Miss Lizzie--Larry Williams (1958)

Miss Lizzie is a boss Birdlander! Go, Lizzie! Go! Go! Go!

The Birdland--The Starlighters (1958)

Hiya radu!

Thanks, the Moody Blues are in my top 5 favorite groups of all time, unfortunately never got to see them live though. 😫

Falls approaching, temps are in the '80's and it feels fine.

Hope all is well your way!
