Rory Gallagher - Jackknife Beat Lyrics
Shake it, baby, before it shakes you,Get it, baby, and let it take you where you want it toDon't say maybe, that just won't do,You say I'm crazyBut this music's got me feeling good.I know it's fever, but I don't need no cureYou're the doctor,I'm your patient that's for sure,I'm your patient that's for sure.Hear it, baby, sneakin' on through,You'll know it, baby, when that rhythmgets inside your shoes.Now don't say maybe, you know it's good for youDon't drive me crazyJust tell me what you're gonna do.Don't run baby, I'm telling youAnd it's too late, baby,Because this rhythm's creeping up on you,You know it's creeping up on you.We got a Jackknife Beat,Sounds like an ice cream truck rolling down a back streetWe got the whole thing going like a pneumatic drillThe guitar man's playing like he's fit to killWe got a Jackknife Beat,A killer of a backbeat,Syphon off the syrup, let it take a back seatWhat's cooking in the kitchen has come to a boilWhat's brewing in the basement's bound to overspillShake it baby, before it shakes you,Get it, baby, and let it take it to where you want it to.Don't say maybe, you know that won't doYou say I'm crazyBut this music's got me feeling goodYou call it fever, but I got the cureYeah, your the doctorAnd I'm your patient that's for sure,I'm the patient that's for sure.
