2:22
single, 1958
Written by Jimmy Lloyd (as James Logsdon) and VicMcAlpin
This is pure rockabilly. Look up rockabilly in the dictionary and this song starts playing. "I got a rocket in my pocket and a roll in my walk / So, baby don't fuss me with that North Forty talk." Boogie-woogie piano, a guitar twanging, and a yodeling, jittering hillbilly at the microphone. You can practically hear the sly winking with all the innuendo in the lyrics ("I got a rocket in my pocket and a roll in my jeans"). This guy's fuse is lit. Personally I would keep a safe distance.
