《All American Boy》歌词

[00:00:00] All American Boy - The Platters

[00:00:06] Gather round cats and I'll tell you a story

[00:00:09] About how to become an all American boy

[00:00:12] Buy you a guitar and put it in tune

[00:00:16] You'll be a rocking and a rolling soon

[00:00:19] Impressing the girls picking hot licks and all that jazz

[00:00:27] Ah, I bought me a guitar a year ago

[00:00:31] Learned how to play in a day or so

[00:00:34] And all around town it was well understood

[00:00:37] That I was knocking them out like Johnny B. Goode

[00:00:41] Hot licks showing off, ah, number one.

[00:00:49] Yeah, I practiced all day and up into the night

[00:00:53] My papa's hair was turning white

[00:00:56] 'Cause he didn't like rocking roll

[00:00:59] He said, 'You can stay boy but that's gotta go.'

[00:01:04] He's a square

[00:01:07] He just didn't dig me at all.

[00:01:11] So I took my guitar picks and all

[00:01:15] Bid farewell to my poor ol' pa

[00:01:18] Split for Memphis where they say y'all

[00:01:21] Them swinging cats are having a ball

[00:01:25] Sessions hot licks and all, they dig me.

[00:01:34] I was rocking and a bopping and I was getting the breaks

[00:01:37] The girls all said that I have what it takes

[00:01:41] When up stepped a man with big cigar

[00:01:43] He said, 'Come here cat, I'm gonna make you a star.

[00:01:48] I'll put you on bandstand,

[00:01:51] Buy you a Cadillac, sign here kid.'

[00:01:57] I signed my name and became a star

[00:02:00] Having a ball with my guitar

[00:02:04] Driving a big long Cadillac and

[00:02:07] Fighting the girls off of my back

[00:02:10] They just kept a coming, a screaming, yeah they liked it.

[00:02:19] So I picked my guitar with a great big grin

[00:02:22] And the money just kept on pouring in

[00:02:26] But then one day my Uncle Sam he said

[00:02:31] 'Here I am.

[00:02:33] Uncle Sam needs you boy,

[00:02:37] I'm a gonna cut your hair off.

[00:02:42] Ah, take this rifle kid, give me that guitar, yeah...'
