Shakin Stevens - The Story Of The Rockers lyrics

It started out with Haley's Comets

A-rockin' round the clock

Well, then along came Presley

With some hillbilly rock, now

Mix it in with Carl Perkins

Chuck Berry when he's workin'

And Little Richard out of Macon

Inspired Jerry Lee to shakin'

Slow down the tempo with the Fat Man (Fats Domino)

Bring back the rhythm with Bo's band (Bo Diddley)

Don and Phil and Eddie Cochran (Don & Phil = Everly Brothers)

And Buddy Holly kept a-rockin'

(Chorus)

And that's the story of the rockers

Yeah, who kept us dancin'

Everybody was movin'

And it looked (felt) so fine (Gene sings "looked, but Jim Pewter sang "felt")

Yeah, you could feel the emotion

As you looked around

Sock it to me rockers

Roll it down the line

Jump back down to to Philly

For a daily Bandstand Rock (Dick Clark's Bandstand)

At The Hop with Danny's Juniors

The Stroll was very hot now

Rydell, Cannon and Dion sang (Bobby Rydell, Freddy cannon, Dion & The Belmonts)

While Eddy's Rebels twanged on (Duane Eddy)

Soon the world a-started twistin'Shakin Stevens - The Story Of The Rockers - http://motolyrics.com/shakin-stevens/the-story-of-the-rockers-lyrics.html

With the Checker dance (Chubby Checker)

The Four Seasons sang Sherry

While Barry Gordy shopped the Champs

Ike and Tina and a-Uncle Ray (Ray Charles)

Along with Shannon's Runaway

(Chorus)

The West Coast started surfin'

With the Beach Boy band

Jan and Dean and the Surfaris

Spread the songs throughout the land

And soon the Beatles from a-Liverpool

Electrified, began to rule

Roll out the Stones with Satisfaction

Mix in a bit of blues reaction

Byrds and Spoonful got in motion

With a very good time notion

Otis Redding and Revue

Young Rascals attitude

(Chorus)

Chuck Willis, Lord Old Sam Cooke

Sock it to me, yeah,

Buddy Knox, Jimmy Bowen, Lloyd Price,

Hey don't touch that dial, I ain't through

I forgot somebody,

Bobby Darin, Larry Williams, The Blue Caps...

Here we go...

(Fade)
