Rockin' at the Ritz - Matchbox

Well grab your cord, find your pick

We got a little job waitin' down on sixth

We’re goin' rockin' at the Ritz

We’re gonna rock for you

Doin' rockabilly-boogie and some Central-Texas-blues

Well you go first, do your thing

And I’ll be waitin' with some extra strings

And when we’re rockin' at the Ritz

We’re gonna break a few

Slappin' that bass an' pickin' those guitars too

Well, we sing a song for Bill, Johnny and Mac

And all them cowboys in the back

They be a-rockin' at the Ritz

Same as me and you

Rockin' at the Ritz and doin' some rollin' too

You can do your song in the key of D

But save that microphone for me

I’m gonna use it at the Ritz

Just as soon as you’re through

I’ve been learnin' my songs and I’m gonna do one for you

You better pick a tune for ol' Carlin

We’ll sing some song for rockin' Jim

He wants to rock it at the Ritz, he wants to rock too

Gonna do his thing as soon as we are through

Well you can tear it up and let 'er go

But you better save somewhat for the pictureshow

They wanna show it at the Ritz

And we can see it too

Ol' Johnny Mac Brown and maybe even Lash LaRue

We better show everybody that we’re all big stars

Or we’ll be back a-workin' at the Diamond Bar

I’d rather work it at the Ritz

And you would too

We better make it at the Ritz or our rockin' days are through
