1.Ghost Radio
(修改)
written by J. Strummer and B. Setzer
As I came acrose the Pecos and broke west of the line
This thunderstorm was running and it ran me out of time
So I was racing through the rain with this rig from Tennessee
When a voice cut through the static, bringing comfort home to me
They were singing
I ain't sittin' in no shack
Got me a Ford right out the back
So come on and roll me over
If I ain't there in nothing flat
With a honky-tonk attitude
I'll be doing the straight line swing
C'mon and grab your horseshoe
And throw it in the ring
Now the levee wall was breaking, rocks were rolling from the ridge
The announcer broke in, saying there was a bus trapped on the bridge
So I turned my rig around, I was axle-deep in mud
And I found those people stranded, the bridge was groaning in the flood
Still my radio was singing
I ain't sittin' in no shack
Got me a Ford right out the back
So come on and roll me over
If I ain't there in nothing flat
With a honky-tonk attitude
I'll be doing the straight line swing
C'mon and grab your horseshoe
And throw it in the ring
With the grinding of my engine, I hauled those people free

With the raging river rising, the driver came thanking me
So I told him about the message; he said, That can't be right
The storm knocked out the radio tower late last Saturday night
But through the static we heard singing
I ain't sittin' in no shack
Got me a Ford right out the back
So come on and roll me over
If I ain't there in nothing flat
With a honky-tonk attitude
I'll be doing the straight line swing
C'mon and grab your horseshoe
And throw it in the ring
Them old truckers gonna tell you down the lonely interstate
Out the dead air on the waveband, the Texas Playboys break
You'll hear a keening voice, Bob Wills is with you as you drive
And you'll know you got a broadcast straight from 1935
Can you hear him singing
I ain't sittin' in no shack
Got me a Ford right out the back
So come on and roll me over
If I ain't there in nothing flat
With a honky-tonk attitude
I'll be doing the straight line swing
C'mon and grab your horseshoe
And throw it in the ring
2.Sammy Davis City
(修改)
written by J. Strummer and B. Setzer
When it's raining and times are hard
And there's too much junk in the backyard
You hope for a rainbow
Be it lotto or keno
In the trailer park
That's the light in the dark
In all of the valleys
Under lucky stars
By the satellite dishes
And the non-running cars
I'm feeling all the people dreaming
Blue tiles are cool
All around the pool
Greek columns are fine
But give me a deal on the vine
Nothing pretentious
I haven't changed
I got sixty billion
But I'm still the same
The pool is hot
The beer is cold
The cigar costs a lot
And the wine is old
Where the car reps dream
Like Walter Mitty
Oh, book me a berth
In Sammy Davis City, yeah!
Well, Annie and Danny
Are growing too fast
And I can't fix the hammock

'Cause I'm feeling half-assed
Those basket ball hoops
Became chicken coops
There's a motel for sale
A cafe and a jail
In all of the valleys
Under lucky Stars
By the satillite dishes
and the non-running cars
I'm feeling all the people dreaming
Blue tiles are cool
All around the pool
Greek columns are fine
But give me a deal on the vine
Nothing pretentious
I haven't changed
I got sixty billion
But I'm still the same
The pool is hot
The beer is cold
The cigar costs a lot
And the wine is old
Where the car reps dream
Like Walter Mitty
Oh, book me a berth
In Sammy Davis City, yeah!
I'm feeling all the people dreaming
Feeling all the people dreaming
Feeling all the people ... dreaming

3.(The Legend Of) Johnny Kool
(修改)
written by B. Setzer
I had one cup of coffee and a cigarette
Then I rolled out of bed with my shirt soaking wet
If I was gonna get movin', now was the time
So I packed up my bags and my Gretsch '59
It's a tough life, love
But when push comes to shove
It's the only life for Johnny Johnny, Johnny Kool
Played his guitar and he sang like a fool
Don't let the big boys grind you down
Johnny Johnny, Johnny Kool
He was a rebel that broke all the rules
Everyone can't stop talkin' about
The legend of Johnny Kool
It was darker than black, not a star in the sky
So I revved on the engine and let that Mercury fly
With the wind blowin' by at a 105
It gave me a thrill just bein' alive
It's a tough life, love
But when push comes to shove
It's the only life for Johnny Johnny, Johnny Kool

Johnny Johnny, Johnny Kool
He was a rebel that broke all the rules
Everyone can't stop talkin' about
The legend of Johnny Kool
Rumor had it now this cat had it all
He was loud, he was wild, and he sure rocked the hall
Some guy grabbed my arm and I jumped on the stage
And I was rockin' with a guy who was twice my age
It's a tough life, love
But when push comes to shove
It's the only life for Johnny Johnny, Johnny Kool
Played his guitar and he sang like a fool
Don't let the big boys grind you down
Johnny Johnny, Johnny Kool
He was a rebel that broke all the rules
Everyone can't stop talkin' about
The legend of Johnny Kool
4.Buzz Buzz
(修改)
written by B. Setzer
Cruisin' 'round this hopeless town,
Down the lovely streets of desire
You're my angel of mercy all dressed in white
And I'm a smokin' gun for hire
Takin' a walk on the wild side
Johnny's got a habit that he can't hide
Livin' life from high to high
When nighttime comes, you can hear him cry
Buzz buzz goes the needle
With each jolt of pain, I call out your name
Buzz buzz goes the needle
And I sacrifice, not in vain, not in vain
Day is night and night is day
Being alive just gets in the way
The twisting snake inside his brain
Whispers to him, 'Time to kill the pain'
They told him opportunity was just around the corner
Well, he wore out his shoes tryin' to find that corner
He might just pick himself up again
Until it happens, until then

Buzz buzz goes the needle
With each jolt of pain, I call out your name
Buzz buzz goes the needle
And I sacrifice, not in vain, not in vain
He's not a new tattoo dedicated to you
As the ink and the blood mix with pain
It's a man on a white horse goin' nowhere
And the man has no face or no name
With the walls closin' in, he's runnin' for cover
He's spinnin' way out of control
He might just pick himself up again
Until it happens, until then
Buzz buzz goes the needle
With each jolt of pain, I call out your name
Buzz buzz goes the needle
And I sacrifice, not in vain, not in vain
Buzz buzz goes the needle
Each drop of blood is a token of love
Buzz buzz goes the needle
And I want a sign from above
5.Rumble In Brighton
(修改)
written by B. Setzer and J. McDonnell
There's the rockabilly cats with their pomps real high
Wearin' black drape coats, all real gone guys
Cool skinheads with their rolled-up jeans
Lookin' real tough and mighty mean
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight
There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
They sew fishhooks under their collars
They got razors in their shoes
I said, 'Go cat go,' their battle cry
World War III is startin' to brew
Now the skinheads all use blackjacks
And they're lookin' mighty mean
They got chains wrapped around their fingers
And their heads are all shaved clean
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight

There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
Well, there ain't a man left standin'
So let's all go get a beer
No team is a winner
So we'll see you all next year
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight
There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
Rumble in Brighton tonight
Rumble on the beach tonight
Rumble in Brighton tonight
Rumble on the beach tonight
There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do
Line right up for a sideline view
Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight

6.The Man With The Magic Touch
(修改)
written by B. Setzer
Now some people got it and some people don't
I'm talkin' 'bout gettin' all the things in life that you want
You can wish it might happen
You can call it dumb luck
But that guy's so lucky, he's just way much too much
He's the man with the magic touch
He's the man with the magic touch
Don't give me all that 'got lucky' such and such
He's the man with the magic touch
He won an all-expenses-paid vacation on a cruise ship 'round the world
And when he gets home, he don't bother lookin' for no girl
He's got a straight to the ace
He got a royal flush
Baby go rub his back for good luck
He's the man with the magic touch
He's the man with the magic touch

Don't give me all that 'got lucky' such and such
He's the man with the magic touch
He goes back to back, he goes hip to hip
He goes face to face, now here' s the tip
If he don't want it
He throws it right back
He knows some poor sucker's gonna take up the slack
He's the man with the magic touch
He's the man with the magic touch
Don't give me all that 'got lucky' such and such
He's the man with the magic touch
My blood is percolatin'
I'm set for detonation
When it comes to good lovin'
He ain't hesitatin'
He's the man with the magic touch

7.Hoodoo Voodoo Doll
(修改)
written by B. Setzer
You say you love me baby
Well this ain't no lost and found
I've got just one deal to make then I'll be trouble bound
They say that you're a doll, that with you I'll keep on winnin'
I think they're talkin' 'bout the kind of doll that you stick pins in
You're my Hoodoo Voodoo Doll
You're my Hoodoo Voodoo Doll
If you keep on sinnin', I'll stick another pin in
You're my Hoodoo Voodoo Doll
I asked the fortune teller where my love might be
She gazed into her crystal ball then looked straight up at me
I told her when your eyes met mine you cast an evil spell
I made a deal with the devil man, my soul to him I'd sell

You're my Hoodoo Voodoo Doll
You're my Hoodoo Voodoo Doll
If you keep on sinnin', I'll just stick another pin in
You're my Hoodoo Voodoo Doll
Got your gris-gris and your mojo, but it won't work on me
Now you're mixin' up some love potion #3
Got my deal signed in blood and there ain't no turnin' back
Cost me all of my money and my pink Cadillac
You're my Hoodoo Voodoo Doll
You're my Hoodoo Voodoo Doll
If you keep on sinnin', I'll stick another pin in
You're my Hoodoo Voodoo Doll

8.My Baby Only Cares For Me
(修改)
written by B. Setzer
Diamonds and pearls, black silk stockings
In her own world when she's rockin'
She don't hang out with anyone else in the crowd
Stiletto heels on the dance floor
Does what she feels as the crowd roars
She doesn't care what anyone else thinks of her
My baby only cares for me
We're a ship in the night all alone on the sea
My baby only cares for me
Give her a wink, exchange glances
She doesn't give second chances
Hey loverboy, you ain't got nothin' she needs
Barons and earls would love to date her
Better you should know sooner than later
轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
Hey, just one dance and you'll be caught in her trance
My baby only cares for me
We're a ship in the night all alone on the sea
My baby only cares for me
Silently waiting for love to explode on the scene
Secretly wishing for someone to sweep her away
What can I say? It could happen
Black caviar, champagne cocktails
Come as you are if all else fails
Hey, here's the thing, she's got the world on a string
My baby only cares for me
We're a ship in the night all alone on the sea
My baby only cares for me
9.Hey, Louis Prima
(修改)
written by B. Setzer
Hey, Louis Prima
We gotta get the hell outta town
'Cause I've been datin' a chick with some swively hips
And her boyfriend don't want me around
And wouldn't it be kinda funny
If we got outta town with all the money
Hey, Louis Prima
You sure know how to lay it on down
We were doin' all-nighters
Cruisin' to a gig in Vegas
Don't know what was goin' on
But it surely did become contagious!
When we pulled up to the show
Ten thousand people or more all yelled out
'Man your band is truly outrageous!'

Hey, Louis Prima
Man, you make 'em jump and shout
I got a five-dollar bet on a two-dollar bill
You're gonna show 'em what it's all about
And wouldn't it be kinda funny
If we got outta town with all the money
Hey, Louis Prima
You sure know how to lay it on down
Hey, Louis Prima
There's something that I just gotta know
Have you still got that old black magic
Or are you just a gigolo?
All we need is some Sam Butera
Then we can say 'Buona Sera'
Hey, Louis Prima
You sure know how to lay it on down
10.The House Is Rocking
(修改)
written by S.R. Vaughan and D. Bramhall
Well, the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother knockin'
Yeah the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother knockin'
Yeah the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother come on in
Kick off your shoes, start losin' the blues
This old house ain't got nothin' to lose
Seen it all for years, start spreadin' the news
We got room on the floor
Come on baby shake sumpin' loose
Well, the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother knockin'
Yeah the house is a-rockin'

Don't bother knockin'
Yeah the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother come on in
Walkin' up the street you can hear the sound
Of some bad honky-tonkers really layin' it down
They've seen it all for years and got nothin' to lose
So get out on the floor
Shimmy til you shake sumpin' loose
Well, the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother knockin'
Yeah the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother knockin'
Yeah the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother come on in
11.Town Without Pity
(修改)
written by D. Tiomkin and N. Washington
When you're young and so in love as we
And bewildered by the world we see
Why do people hurt us so
Only those in love would know
What a town without pity can do
If we stop to gaze upon a star
People talk about how bad we are
Ours is not an easy age
We're like tigers in a cage
What a town without pity can do
The young have problems, many problems
We need an understanding heart
Why don't they help us, try to help us
Before this clay and granite planet falls apart
轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
Take these eager lips and hold me fast
I'm afraidthis kind of joy can't last
How can we keep love alive
How can anything survive
When these little minds tear you in two
What a town without pity can do
How can we keep love alive
How can anything survive
When these little minds tear you in two
What a town without pity can do
No, it isn't very pretty
What a town without pity can do

I wanna mambo, sambo, do my number
