(Chapman/Chinn)
[Spoken:]
"All my life I've wanted to be somebody, and here I am.
I know what I've got, and there ain't nobody gonna take it away from me.
So let me tell ya what I am!"
I'm a red-hot fox. I can take the knocks
I'm a hammer from hell. Honey, can't you tell?
I'm the wild one. Yes, I'm the wild one
I'm a touched-up freak on a winning streak

(Penniman)
[Spoken:]
"This song is dedicated to all you 16 year-old girls out there.
You know when all those boys come around asking you all for a date
You just got to sit back and be cool and tell 'em one thing".
You keep a-knockin, but you can't come in
You keep a-knockin, but you can't come in
You keep a-knockin, but you can't come in
Come back tomorrow night and try it again

(Chapman-Chinn)
Say, sugar-honey you've gotta act like me
Well, you can take a passion-lovin' panther
Make him week at the knees
You can shake him like a rattle, and roll him like a dice
But, honey, you know I'm too big to be nice
I gave away my independence to all them evil guys
And when I got too hot they put my lips on ice
Now I don't hold out with those wise-guys. I see through their disguise

(Quatro-Tuckey)
Well, it's a face.
She's a daughter wearing all the bracelets, too
And it's a place.
Ooo. Don't let her mama catch you
Won't cha have a taste of the bad side
You never knew good could be so cruel
And all the rest
Ooo. Don't let her mama catch you
She'll make the most of any man
You know those boys will take their life in their hands
For Klondyke Kate...Sweet Klondyke Kate

(Chapman-Chinn)
Streamline, goldmine, nighttime, summertime, feeling fine
Saturation point is reached by nine
Your circulation elevated mine
I was a bar room baby. Let out of my cage for you
A celuloid slave. Once arranged for the things I do
So I done ditched the last queen who was mean to you
Right on. Right on. Right on Savage Silk
Right on. Right on. Right on Savage Silk

(Samwell)
Well, come on pretty baby let's move it and groove it
Shake it, baby, shake it, baby. Please don't lose it
The rhythym will get you to your heart and soul
Well, you know, pretty baby, it's called rock and roll
They say it's gonna die, but, honey, please let's face it
Well they just don't know what's going to replace it
Well, talented blues ain't got nothing on

(Mayfield)
Hit the road, Jack, and don't you come back
No more. No more. No more. No more.
Hit the road, Jack, and don't you come back no more
Woman, oh, woman don't you treat me so mean
Your the meanest old woman that I've ever seen
But I guess if you say so
I have to pack my bags and go
That's right!
Hit the road, Jack, and don't you come back
No more. No more. No more. No more.

(Leiber-Stoller)
If you're looking for trouble, boy, you've come to the right place
If you're looking for trouble just look right in my face
I was born standing up and talking back
My daddy was a green-eyed mountain, Jack
'Cause I'm evil
Misery is my middle name
Well, I'm evil
So don't you mess around with me
I never look for trouble, but I never ran
And I don't take no orders from no kind of man

(Quatro-Tuckey)
Now I'm done playing with fools
And I've paid all my childhood dues
I find the mountain much steeper to climb
Am I just one of the crowd?
I decided a few days ago
There's no room. Room for me in this show
I changed my make-up completely this time
Now I'm not one...one of the crowd
So good-bye. Good-bye blind eyes
I'm gonna find me a cat's eye
Good-bye. Good-bye blind eyes

(Thompson)
Oh, when your hands start a-clapping
And your fingers start a-popping
Well, your feet got to move around
And you start to swing and swaying
And the band starts to playing
To a real cool, way out sound
Well, if you get the "can't help it's" and you can't sit down
You feel like you've got to move around
Need a shot of rhythm and blues

(Quatro-Tuckey)
Friday's got her mind on lovin'
Her evil eyes are on you, boy
It promises to be a nightime
Of uninterrupted joy...joy...joy
What's she doing. Who's she screwing
Leave it up to Friday. She's anyone's wife
What's she doing. Who's she screwing
Gonna be a lover for the rest of her life
At fourteen you were such a sweet thing
You helped your mama with the chores

(Chapman-Chinn)
[Spoken:]
"Hey, you all want to go down to Devil Gate Drive?
Well, come on"!
"Welcome to 'The Dive'!"
Well, at the age of five they can do their jive
Down in Devil Gate Drive
And at the age of six they're gonna get their kicks
Down in Devil Gate Drive
Well your mama don't know where your sister done go
She gone down to the Drive. She's the start of the show

(Samwell)
Well, come on pretty baby let's move it and groove it
Shake it, baby, shake it, baby. Please don't lose it
The rhythym will get you to your heart and soul
