_ _ _ I've been looking into this [G#] rock and roll stuff and believe me what I see, disgust.
These men come down here from New York and from Florida to find out my _ reasons on rock and roll music and why I preach against it.
And I believe with all of my heart that it is a contributing factor to our juvenile delinquency of today.
I 100 percent believe it.
Why I believe that is because I know how it feels when you sing it.
I know what it does to you.
And I know the evil feeling that you feel when you sing it.
I know the lost position that you get into in the beat.
Well, if you talk to the average teenager of today and you ask them what it is about rock and roll music that they like,
and they'll the first thing they'll say is the beat, the beat, the beat, the beat, the beat, the beat, the [B] beat, the beat, the beat, the beat, the beat, the beat, the beat, the beat, the beat, the beat.
_ _ I left my home in North Virginia, California [E] on the mine.
[F#] Straddle that railroad and then rallying on across [B] Carolina.
I stopped in Charlotte, but my rock band, we never was a [E] minute late.
[F#] And we were 90 miles out of Atlanta, my son down rolling out of [B] Georgia State.
We had a little trouble and turned into a struggle halfway across [E] Alabama.
[F#] When the power went down, we left the saucepan and went down to [B] Birmingham.
So right away I brought me a route drug ticket right across [E] Mississippi.
And [F#] I was on that midnight ride around Birmingham, smoking in [B] the narrow lane. _ _ _

the hell did I lose the energy to help me get [E] used to town?
[F#] Well, there were people there who cared a little about me and they wanted to [B] walk on down.
Sure as you'd thought, they'd bought me a silk suit and put a [E] luggage in my hand.
[F#] And then I woke up high on a route to Turkey on a jet from [B] a plane.

_ on a team on St.
Carl, I turned to find a work [E] in Golden [F#] State.
When the pilot told us in 13, he would send us [B] at the terminal gate.
Swing low, turn, come down easy, taxi to [E] the terminal zone.
[F#] At your range, let me make it to [B] the telephone.
Los Angeles, give me a North Florida, Virginia, Tidewater, [E]
41009.
[F#] Tell the folks back at home to send the promised land,
calling in the pub [B] always on the line.
