Bruce on the artist

Lyrics
A-keep your eyes on the road, your hand upon the wheel
Keep your eyes on the road, your hand upon the wheel
Yeah, we're going to the Roadhouse, gonna have a real
A-good time
Yeah, the back of the Roadhouse, they got some bungalows
Yeah, the back of the Roadhouse, they got some bungalows
And that's for the people who like to go down slow
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll
All night long
Do it, Robby, do it
(Alright)
(Hey, yeah)
You gotta roll, roll, roll, you gotta thrill my soul, alright
Roll, roll, roll, roll, a-thrill my soul
Da-ga-da-beep-a-con-ja-choo-chon, honk, honk, honk
A-don-ta, ee-cha-koo-na-nee-cha
Bop-a-loo-la-ree-chow
Bomp-a-kee-cho, ee-sonk-konk
Yeah, ride
Ashen lady
Ashen lady
Give up your vows
Give up your vows
Save our city
Save our city
Right now
And I woke up this morning, I got myself a beer
And I woke up this morning and I got myself a beer
The future's uncertain and the end is always near
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, hey
All night long
