Shake 'Em Up

(album: Missing Links Volume Three - 1996)

Sitting in a blue light diner
Wishing life could be much finer
There's nothing here but beer and a bunch of old men
And I'm so down I can't be choosing
Here comes old Side Order Susie
So shake 'em up and let 'em roll, let 'em roll again

Well, parking in a drive-in movie
Wishing life could be more groovy
I'd love to share my back seat, with a friend
Headlights flashing in my mirror
Lordy, hate that Review Vera
Shake 'em up and let 'em roll, let 'em roll again

Shake 'em up, let 'em roll
You've got a woman with a lotta soul
Shake 'em up and let 'em roll, let 'em roll again

Hanging in the bowling alley
Wandering in to dilly dally
I bought a new comb and a package of sin-sins
I'm combing my hair in the plate glass window
I'm gonna get lucky with a Lucky Linda
Shake 'em up and let 'em roll, let 'em roll again

Mister Henry Diltz on clarinet

Shake 'em up, let 'em roll
I've got a woman with a lotta soul
I said shake 'em up and let 'em roll, let 'em roll again
