"Rockabilly Gal" - Rio Scafone & Seán Eric Harris - Lyrics by Rio Scafone Well she's a real nice lady but a lady with a mean mean voice Wanda rocks real hard making lots of noise Cherry bomb baby, don't need to be coy She can wail real hard with the best of the boys A real nice lady but a lady with a mean mean voice She was sugar and spice With a voice like pure moonshine When the man in black said "June, you're gonna be mine." Said, "Hey now, Johnny, don't you waste my time. You wanna be with me then walk that line." Yeah, sugar and spice with a voice like pure moonshine Refrain: She's a rockabilly gal, got the 'billy down in her soul Rockabilly gal, make them scream for more Rockabilly gal, one of a kind She's a whole lotta woman, gonna blow your mind She's a rockabilly gal got the 'billy down in her soul [Guitar Solo] She was a sweet young thing, star by age fifteen Elvis lost his mind when he heard her sing Said, "Hey there Janice, they call me the King. Do me the honor, would you be my Queen?" Sweet young thing, star by age fifteen [Refrain] [Sax Solo] Yeah! [Refrain] Rockabilly gal, she's one of a kind She's gonna BLOW Rockabilly gal ... She's a rockabilly gal ... She's a rockabilly gal ... She's a rockabilly gal ... She's a rockabilly gal, got the 'billy down in her soul

"Be My Baby" Written by Rio Scafone/Seán Eric Harris Lyrics by Rio Scafone Oh, well, Be my baby Don't you dare say maybe Cuz you drive me crazy In the best possible way You make the world seem brighter Make my heart feel lighter Wanna squeeze you tighter In the best possible way Well you walk through the door Next thing I know we're on the dance floor. Greased hair piled high With the look of trouble in your eye Won't you be my baby Don't you dare say maybe Cuz you drive me crazy In the best possible way When you kiss my cheek Makin' my knees go weak Oh, baby, let's play for keeps In the best possible way In the best way [Sax solo] When you walk through the door next thing I know we're on the dance floor greased ahir piled high with the look of trouble in your eye. Be my baby Don't you dare say maybe Cuz you drive me crazy In the best possible way You're make my world seem brighter Making my heart feel lighter Wanna squeeze you tighter In the best possible way Oh won't you be my baby Don't you dare say maybe Cuz you drive me crazy In the best way You're making my world seem brighter Making my heart feel lighter Wanna squeeze you tighter In the best possible way
