Man said, "Shut your mouth son, play the guitar and you just wait and see" Well, that boy made it, he made it real big And so did the rest of the rock n roll scene along with him And a white guy named Johnny Otis took Bo Diddleys rhythm He changed it into hand-jive and it went like this In a little old country town one day A little old country band began to play Add two guirtars and a beat up saxophone When the drummer said, boy, those cats begin to roam Oh baby oh we oh oh Ooh la la that rock and roll Ya hear me oh we oh oh Ooh la la that rock and roll Then in the U.S. music scene there was big changes made Due to circumstances beyond our control such as payola The rock n roll scene died after two years of solid rock And you got discs like, ah... Take good care of my baby Please don't ever make her blue and so forth About, ah, one year later in a place called Liverpool in England Four young lads with mop haircuts began to sing stuff like, ah... It's been a hard days night and I've been working like a dog and so on In a place called Richmond in Surrey, whay down in the deep south They got guys with long hair down their back singing I wanna be your lover baby I wanna be your man yeah and all that jazz Now we've doing this number, Bo Diddley, for quite some time now Bo Diddley visited this country last year We were playing at the Club A Gogo in Newcastle, our home town The doors opened one night and to our surprise W alked in the man himself, Bo Diddley Along with him was Jerome Green, his maraca man, And the Duchess, his gorgeous sister And a we were doing this number Along with them came the Rolling Stones, the Mersey Beats, They're all standing around diggin' it And I overheard Bo Diddley talkin' He turned around to Jermone Green And he said, "Hey, Jerome? What do you think these guys Doin' our..our material?" Jerome said, "Uh, where's the bar, man? Please show me to the bar..." He turned around the Duchess And he said, "Hey Duchess...what do you think of these young guys Doin' our material?" She said, "I don't know. I only came across here To see the changin' of the guards and all that jazz." Well, Bo Diddley looked up and said to me, With half closed eyes and a smile, He said "Man," took off his glasses, He said, "Man, that sure is the biggest load of rubbish I ever heard in my life..."
