Solid Ball of Rock

Lyrics

[Intro] Yeah [Verse 1] One night in Louisiana, down by highway eighty four You could hear a strange dog howling right outside his mama's door The baby was a killer, the cousin was a priest The baby upped and said, "I play the music of the beast" The Devil in Concordia looked down and waved his hand The boy with jack-hawk eyes became the leader of the band The connoisseur of rhythm, rock 'n' roll and swing But when it comes to boogie you know that he's the king [Chorus] Solid ball of rock Solid ball of rock Solid ball of rock crashing out of the sky It's shakin' all over but he don't know why [Verse 2] The Devil went to Memphis as he flew into the sun He howled about redemption with a bible and a gun The preacher beat his chest and cried, "Set my people free!" The killer said, "I'll drag you to the gates of Hell with me" [Chorus] Solid ball of rock Solid ball of rock Solid ball of rock crashing out of the sky It's shakin' all over but he don't know why [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Solid ball of rock Solid ball of rock Solid ball of rock Solid ball of rock [Verse 3] The killer, he was born again and saw the gates of Hell The preacher found redemption in a Jacksonville motel The Devil take the hindmost, they're running out of breath They're gonna have to reckon with the chilling hand of death [Chorus] Solid ball of rock Solid ball of rock Solid ball of rock crashing out of the sky It's shakin' all over but he don't know why Solid ball of rock Solid ball of rock Solid ball of rock crashing out of the sky It's shakin' all over but he don't know why
