Steppenwolf - Berry Rides Again Lyrics
Words and music by John KayWell thinkin' of my school days, I remember MaybelineUsed to dance with her all night she was little sweet sixteenHer brother used to chase meHe thought I did, but I never couldI used to call him Little QueenieHis name was Johnnie B. GoodI used to hold her 'til I was olderThen I got bolder,Her brother used to scold herI left there in the mornin'Went back to Memphis, TennesseeYou know her brother never found meAnd that's all right with meI went to New York City to find what could be foundJust for kicks down sixty six, stopped in L.A. TownYes I went to California just to see what I could seeWell nobody knew just where I wasAnd that's alright with meYou know I met a girl named CarolAnd her girlfriend sweet Nadine,Played the rock n' roll musicUsed to kiss me in betweenRoll over Beethoven that happened to be her favorite songBut we never did much rollin'I didn't stay there longI used to hold her and try to mold herSomebody told her, Nadine and I were bolderI left there in the mornin'Went back to Memphis, TenneesseeYou know, I never saw her face againAnd that's alright with meRepeat MCA Music (BMI)
