Sure like to boogie after death comes callin' Sure like rockin' when I'm far away "Ooh Pooh Pah Doo" is lettin' Jesse watch the heavens Paint another picture while you're turning grey Everything I knew about was always American Skip a stone lightly and you'll be okay Never really get my rockin' feet to movin' Till somebody's singing "" Got mystery train fever, and I'm a believer And go down Moses, and I'll send you red roses Despair, and death at an early age You sang about truckin' and the band had it movin' If you were a lizard then you might be gone A little self-indulgence never moved a mountain Don't need the fiddler yellin' "Yeah, right on!" You're my angel from a wet salvation You can buy and sell me so you shine me on Your mama worked hard and the acid made you think about it Why, mother water, are the days all gone Got mystery train fever, and I'm a believer And go down Moses, and I'll send you red roses Despair, and death at an early age
