That Ain't Nothing But Right - Mac Curtis

That Ain't Nothing But Right - Mac Curtis
2:14
single, 1956
Written by Jim Shell and Joe Price

The narrator likes holding his woman tight, and if that's wrong, he doesn't want to be right.  He also likes his beer cold, his TV loud, and his homosexuals flaming.  Just kidding; there's nothing in the lyrics that explicitly says this, though it's possibly implied.  "Well, I like my coffee black and strong / I like my auto big and long."  I read that when this Texas rockabilly king was a young lad, a school show he put on "shut down due to sexually suggestive on-stage movements."  Cool!
