Eddie Gaines And The Rockin' Five Be-Bop Battlin' Ball

BE-BOP BATTLIN' BALL
(E. Gaines)
EDDIE GAINES & THE ROCKIN' FIVE (SUMMIT 101, 1958)

Well, it's a hard time cookin'
Down at Matt's ol' place
I said, a hard time cookin'
Down at Matt's ol' place
Oh well, when you start wigglin'
And baby, watch their face

[Chorus]
You got a be-bop battlin' ball
A be-bop battlin' ball, baby
A be-bop battlin' ball
A be-bop battlin' ball
Well, I'll always talk of my baby
That ain't all

Oh well, the cats started jumpin'
Man they're really doin' it right
I said, the cats started jumpin'
Man they're really doin' it right
You gotta clear the floor
'Cause we're gonna mop it tonight

[Chorus]

Well, I'll pick you up along about eight
We're not coming back until it's late
I'll pick you up along about eight
We're not coming back until it's late
Go tell your mother she might as well lock the gate

[Chorus]
