Stupidity

(chuck berry)

Let me tell you 'bout a girl i know
I met her walking on an uptown street
She's so fine, you know, i wish she was mine
I get the shivers every time we meet

Talkin' bout you
Yeah, i do mean you
Nobody but you
Baby let me get a message to you, yeah

Let me tell you 'bout a girl i know
Yeah, tell you now she looks so good
So much skills, she's got a beautiful build
She ought to be somehere in hollywood

I'm talkin' bout you
Yeah, i do mean you
Nobody but you
Baby let me get a message to you, yeah

- guitar break -

And let me tell you 'bout this girl i know
She's sitting right here by my side
Lovely indeed, that's why i asked her if she'd
Promises to someday she would be my bride

I'm talkin' bout you
I do mean you
Nobody but you
Baby let me get a message to you, yeah

Yeah, let me tell you 'bout a girl i know

Nobody but you
Baby let me get a message to you, yeah

Well i'm a hog for you baby
I can't get enough of your love
I'm a hog for you baby
I can't get enough of your love
When i go to sleep at night
You're the only thing i'm dreaming of

One little piggy went to london
One piggy went to hong kong
This little piggy's coming over your house
I'm gonna rock you all night long

Cos i'm a hog for you baby
I can't get enough of your love
When i go to sleep at night
You're the only thing i'm dreaming of

One little piggy ate a pizza
One piggy ate potato chips
This little piggy's coming over you house
I'm gonna lock up those sweet lips

Cos i'm a hog for you baby
I can't get enough of your love
When i go to sleep at night
You're the only thing i'm dreaming of

I can't get enough of your love
When i go to sleep at night
You're the only thing i'm dreaming of
When i go to sleep at night
You're the only thing i'm dreaming of
When i go to sleep at night
You're the only thing i'm dreaming of

If there's something that i like
It's the way that woman walks
And if there's something i like better
It's the way she baby talks

She does it right
She does it right
She works hard every night just to make me feel alright
She told me not to worry
And there ain't a single trouble in sight

I said you you ought to see her jerk
You ought to see her walk on the floor
And when she gets back to her seat
Mmh all the people cry for more

She does it right
She does it right
She works hard every night just to make me feel alright
She told me not to worry
And there ain't a single trouble in sight

I said i'd give her anything
That her little heart desires
Anything she wants
Just to keep her by my side (/satisfied)

She does it right
She does it right
She works hard every night just to make me feel alright
She told me not to worry
And there ain't a single trouble in sight

If there's something that i like
It's the way that woman walks
And if there's something i like better
It's the way she baby talks

She does it right
She does it right
She works hard every night just to make me feel alright
She told me not to worry
And there ain't a single trouble in sight

She does it right (8 x)

If you see my baby walking
I'm a walking by her side
Ain't no need to look too far
Because i won't be hard to find

I'm walkin twenty yards behind her
Cause i love the way she shakes behind

Everybody stops to see her
When my baby's out takin' a stroll
I see a traffic cop that flags
When a steam roller ran out of control
But when my baby walked by
He jumped up and shouted 'bless my soul'
Bless my soul

- break -

It's all much confusion in the town
When she's passing through
All the cars are going backwards
And the traffic lights change to blue

I'm walking twenty yards behind her
Cause i'm frightened of the damage she'll do

On july second, 1953,
I was serving time for armed robbery
'bout four in the morning
I was sleepin' in my cell
I heard a whistle blow
I heard somebody yell

There's a riot goin' on
There's a riot goin' on
There's a riot goin' on
Up in cell block number nine

The trouble started in cell block no. 4
It spread like fire across the prison floor
I said "come on boys, get ready to run -
Here comes the warden with a tommy gun"

There's a riot goin' on
There's a riot goin' on
There's a riot goin' on
Up in cell block number nine

The warden said
"come out with your hands up in the air
If you don't stop this riot (or: you gonna start a riot ???)
You're all gonna get the chair"
Scarface jones said, "it's too late to quit
And pass the dynamite, 'cause the fuse is lit"

There's a riot goin' on
There's a riot goin' on
There's a riot goin' on
Up in cell block number nine

The ninety-second hour
The tear gas got our men
Crawled in our cells
But every now and then...

There's a riot goin' on
There's a riot goin' on
There's a riot goin' on
Up in cell block number nine
