GIt comes from Mississippi and down in Alabam
Creeping like a fever all across the land 
From deep in the Delta on the Louisiana shore
The people got to have it they wanna hear some more
It's a CHillbilly Rock beat it with a drum
GPlaying that guitar like shooting from a gun
CKeeping up the rhythm steady as a clock
D7Doing a little thing called the Hillbilly GRock
Some say it came from Memphis down in Tennessee
Or It drifted here from Georgia bout 1953
Just as long as it's greasy as long as it's fast
As long as it's pumping honey it's gonna last
Repeat #2 
Way back in ole Kentucky where the blue grass grows
Through the Carolinas on the dirt red roads
Burning like a fire running wild in the woods
From Arkansas to Texas it sounds so good 
Repeat #2
So when the heat starts to rise and you got a full head of steam
Take a ride down the river and you'll see just what I mean
The juke joint's jumping when that cat goes on
The whole place is shaking there's something going on 
Repeat #2

It comes from Mississippi and down in Alabam

Creeping like a fever all across the land

From deep in the Delta on the Louisiana shore

The people got to have it they wanna hear some more

It's a Hillbilly Rock beat it with a drum

Playing that guitar like shooting from a gun

Keeping up the rhythm steady as a clock

Some say it came from Memphis down in Tennessee

Or It drifted here from Georgia bout 1953

Just as long as it's greasy as long as it's fast

As long as it's pumping honey it's gonna last

Take a ride down the river and you'll see just what I mean

The juke joint's jumping when that cat goes on

The whole place is shaking there's something going on
