Whiskey Rock-a-roller Lyrics - Singles - Used Cars

(B. Powell/E. King/R. Van Zant) 

I'm headed down a highway got a suitcase by my side 

Blue skies hangin' over my head I got 500 miles to ride 

I'm goin' down to Memphis town to play a latenight show 

I hope the people are ready there 'cause the boys are all ready to go 

CHORUS: 

Well, I'm a whiskey rock-a-roller 

That's what I am 

Women, whiskey and miles of travellin' 

Is all I understand 

I was born a travellin' man and my feets do burn the ground 

I don't care for fancy music if your shoes can't shuffle around 

I got a 100 women or more and there's no place I call home 

The only time I'm satisfied is when I'm on the road 

CHORUS 

Sometimes I wonder where will we go 

Lord don't take my whiskey, rock and roll 

Take me down to Memphis town, busdriver get me there 

I got me a queenie she got longbrown curly hair 

She likes to drink Old Grandad and her shoes do shuffle around 

And everytime I see that gal Lord she wants to take me down 

CHORUS
