I was a rock and roll fan when I was a little bitty boy.
Mother would say, you can't be listening to that, you can't be playing that stuff.
I said, I can be listening to that and I can be playing that stuff.
Go down and see God, that's the only hope.
[C] Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, and I stole all the [N] licks that I could steal at that time.
The man that I [Ab] want to bring up in a minute, [F] [Bb] he could tear an audience apart.
I'm talking [G] about tear them out of the frame and throw [Fm] babies in the air when he got through.
[N] The Williams family is known for that also.
I saw this guy and said, I have got to get some piano lessons.
And mother would have some parties over at the house in the late 50s and early 60s.
And some of these wonderful faces that you're inducting here tonight would be at those parties.
It gives me a great feeling to be invited here to do it.
Because I respect music and musicians for how good it is.
Not for the label that it has on it.
Jimmy Rogers went in.
I would imagine Hank Williams with his wiggling around on Love Sick Blues in 50 and 51 might be.
So

[N] Bring up and induct into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, on all y'all's behalf, the killer Jerry Lee Lewis.

I couldn't do it without you.
[B] And that I mean sincerely.
I don't [C] know what else to say except that may [N] God bless each and every one of you.
