Oh, My Baby

 

(To standard Fifties Rock and Roll “Beat”
Specifically to Roy Orbison’s “Mean Woman Blues”)

 

Oh, my baby, shake rattle and roll,
Oh, my baby, shake rattle and roll,
I got a good, good woman full of rhythm and soul!

 

She wears Capri pants, and she can dance,
Kicks off her shoes; you can’t lose,
I got a good, good woman full of rhythm and soul,
She rolls over me like a steamroller roll!

 

She’s a steamroller girl; she knocks me down,
Yah, pretty girl you’re the best in town,
I got a good, good woman full of rhythm and soul,
There are times, there are times, I feel it takes its toll!

 

I got good, good woman full of rhythm and soul,
I got good, good woman full of rhythm and soul,
Travel east, west, south and to the North Pole,
That good, good woman is my shake rattlin’ goal!
