Rockin' Through The Rye

Bill Haley - Rusty Keefer

© Myers Music, BMI

If a body digs a body
Rockin' through the rye
If a body digs a body
Need a body cry

Every lassie digs a laddie
Nane they say hey I
Yet all the lassies rock with me
When rockin' through the rye

The Campbells are rocking
The blues away
The Campbells are rocking
The blues away

There ain't no stopping it
Man they're bopping it
Gang a wild gang a wild
Go man go

A bonny wee lassie is on the beat
A bonny wee lassie is rocking reet
I'd be laddie it's a fitting
That I had it

Gang a wild
Let's go rockin' in the rye

Maxwelltown's braes are bonny
And the bluebells lost the blues
They were jumping in the heather
Like a knocked out feather
Hey dig that crazy news hoot

The Campbells are
Rocking the blues away
The Campbells are
Rocking the blues away

Man let's give it up
Give it up give it up
Gang a wild
Let's go rockin' in the rye

Maxwelltown's braes are bonny
And the bluebells lost the blues
They were jumping in the heather
Like a knocked out feather
Hey dig that crazy news hoot

The Campbells are
Rocking the blues away
The Campbells are
Rocking the blues away

Man let's live it up
Live it up live it up
Gang a wild
Let's go rockin' in the rye

Gang a wild
Let's go rockin' in the rye
Gang a wild
Let's go rockin' in the rye

Hook Line And Sinker

Bill Haley - Eddie Khoury - Ronnie Benner

© Valley Brook Pub, ASCAP

Like a catfish in the river
Like a flounder in the sea
When the right chick comes along
She always makes a fool of me

I go hook line and sinker
Hook line and sinker
Hook line and sinker
That's the way I go for you

Now there was a little fishy
Swimming in the brook
He was doing fine until he got himself a hook

Hook line and sinker
Hook line and sinker
Hook line and sinker
That's the way I go for you

I tries to telephone you
Tried to telegram too
Even tried to write a letter
How I feel about you

I go hook line and sinker
Hook line and sinker
Hook line and sinker
That's the way I go for you

Now if you're ever feeling lonely
And you don't know what to do
Telephone me honey I'll be waiting here for you

I go hook line and sinker
Hook line and sinker
Hook line and sinker
That's the way I go for you

Like a catfish in the river
Like a flounder in the sea
When the right chick comes along
She always makes a fool of me

I go hook line and sinker
Hook line and sinker
Hook line and sinker
That's the way I go for you

Choo Choo Ch' Boogie

Vaughn Horton - Milt Gabler - Denver Darling

© Rytvoc Music, ASCAP

Headin' for the station with a pack on my back
I'm tired of transportation in the back of my hack
I love to hear the rhythm of the clickety clack
And hear the lonesome whistle see the smoke from the stack

To pal around with democratic fellows named Mac
So take me right back to the track Jack

Choo-choo choo-choo ch'boogie woo-woo
Woo-woo ch'boogie choo-choo choo-choo ch'boogie
Take me right back to the track Jack

You reach your destination but you don't go back
You need some compensation to get back in the black
You take a morning paper from the top of the stack
And read the situations from the front to the back
But the only job that's open needs a man with a knack
So put it right back in the rack Jack

Choo-choo choo-choo ch'boogie woo-woo
Woo-woo ch'boogie choo-choo choo-choo ch'boogie
Take me right back to the track Jack

Gonna settle down by the railroad track
Live the life o'riley in the beaten down shack
When I hear a whistle I can peep thru the crack
Watch the train rollin' when it's ballin' the jack
Love to hear the rhythm of the clickety clack
So take me right back to the track Jack

Hot Dog Buddy Buddy

Bill Haley

© Keefer Music, ASCAP

Cold as a codfish
Hot as a coal
Hot dog buddy
Well bless my soul

I'm rocking
Rocking on down the line
Hot dog buddy buddy
A hot dog all the time

I got legs like a rooster
Eyes like a frog
When I hear music
I'll holler hot dog

I'm rocking
Rocking on down the line
Hot dog buddy buddy
A hot dog all the time

Hot dog buddy buddy
Hot dog buddy buddy
Hot dog buddy buddy
Hot dog buddy
Hot dog buddy buddy

Fourteen days
Fourteen fights
Fourteen lefts
And fourteen rights

And I'm rocking
Rocking on down the line
Hot dog buddy buddy
A hot dog all the time

Danced last night
The night before
If I live to see tomorrow
Gonna dance some more

'Cause I'm rocking
Rocking on down the line
Hot dog buddy buddy
A hot dog all the time

Hot dog buddy buddy
Hot dog buddy buddy
Hot dog buddy buddy
Hot dog buddy
Hot dog buddy buddy

Blue suede shoes
Nylon thread
Jaguar hat
Gonna knock 'em dead

'Cause I'm rocking
Rocking on down the line
Hot dog buddy buddy
A hot dog all the time

I got no money
Cept a dime and a quarter
I could stop now
But I don't think I oughta

'Cause I'm rocking
Rocking on down the line
Hot dog buddy buddy
A hot dog all the time

Hot dog

Tonight's The Night

Bill Haley - Catherine Cafra

© Valley Brook Pub, ASCAP

Nine o'clock's the hour gotta take a shower
Gotta shine my shoes up right
Gotta meet my baby don't mean maybe
Hey Tonight's the night

Walkin' with my baby talkin' with my baby
Gotta make her see the light
Yellow moon above just right for makin' love
Hey Hey Tonight's the night

All this week I stayed at home didn't even use the phone
In bed by nine or ten
But tonight I'm gonna shine makin' up for that lost time
We're gonna sail we're gonna wail

All the guys we'll meet while walkin' down the street
Will take a second look all right
But I'll be feelin' fine 'cause I'll be makin' time
Hey Hey Tonight's the night

Nine o'clock's the hour gotta take a shower
Gotta shine my shoes up right
Gotta meet my baby don't mean maybe
Hey Tonight's the night

Walkin' with my baby talkin' with my baby
Gotta make her see the light
Yellow moon above just right for makin' love
Hey Hey Tonight's the night

All this week I stayed at home didn't even use the phone
In bed by nine or ten
But tonight I'm gonna shine makin' up for that lost time
We're gonna sail we're gonna wail

All the guys we'll meet while walkin' down the street
Will take a second look all right
But I'll be feelin' fine 'cause I'll be makin' time
Hey Hey Tonight's the night
Hey Hey A crazy night
Hey Hey Tonight's the night
