Hey mister DJ I'm calling you
|
Now can you play me some real cool tunes
|
Something that sounds like a long time ago
|
The kind of music that thrills my soul
|
|
You must have something in your record rack
|
A simple little song that can bring me back to when they
|
|
Sang up on the roof
|
And underneath the boardwalk when they'd go
|
Dancin' in the streets
|
Boogaloon' down on Broadway hey when
|
Lovers used to slow dance all night long
|
And they knew the words to every song
|
|
There's got to be somebody somewhere
|
Singin' some new old songs
|
|
Like Otis Redding "Sittin' On The Dock"
|
Or Bill Haley's "Rock Around The Clock"
|
When Buddy Holly loved sweet Peggy Sue
|
True love ways were all they knew
|
There's somethin' 'bout happiness heartbreak and hurt
|
That leaves me hangin on every word back when they
|
|
Sang up on the roof
|
And underneath the boardwalk when they'd go
|
Dancin' in the streets
|
Boogaloon' down on Broadway hey when
|
Lovers used to slow dance all night long
|
And they knew the words to every song
|
|
Now that radio's on and I'm stayin' up
|
Please dedicate it to the one I love like it was when they
|
|
Sang up on the roof
|
And underneath the boardwalk when they'd go
|
Dancin' in the streets
|
Boogaloon' down on Broadway hey when
|
Lovers used to slow dance all night long
|
And they knew the words to every song
|
|
There's got to be somebody somewhere
|
Singin' some new old songs
|
Just like in the fifties
|
High on a mountain of love
|
In the midnight hour
|
Oh knock on wood
|
Kiss an angle good morning
|
Your cheatin' heart
|
