Well Billy bought a Chevy '40 coupe deluxe

Chrome wheels, stick shift, hey give her gas, pop the clutch
E B
Little girls on the corner like a diamond they shine

Someday Billy I'm gonna make 'em all mine
E
Hey girl, you wanna ride in Daddy's Cadillac
A
'Cause I love the way your long hair falls down your back
E B
Bo Diddley, Bo Diddley's at the Seaside Bar
E A
We'll run barefoot in the sand and listen to his guitar
C#m
You say your mama's gonna meet you when the morning comes
A
Yeah, papa's gonna beat you 'cause he knows you're out on the run
E
I'm gonna live a life of love and tonight you're the one
G#m F#m
The highway is alive tonight so baby do not be frightened
G#m
There's something about a pretty girl on a sweet summer night
C#m B C#m B C#m B
That gets this boy excited
G#m C#m
The radio man finally understands and plays you something you can move to
F#m G#m
You lay back, cut loose your drive power
A B A G#m F#m G#m A B A G#m F#m G#m F#m
Your girl leans over says, "Daddy can you turn that radio up any louder?"
E
Ah, the juke joint's hummin', everybody came down
A
Little Willie and the Soul Brooms layin' all his stuff now
E B
Well don't let that daylight steal your soul
E A B C#m B A B E
Get in your wheels and roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll
Oh that's right now

Oh mama's gonna meet you when the morning comes
A
And your daddy's gonna beat you 'cause he knows you're out on the run

But I don't care, I wanna live a life of love while the night's still young
All right now
