There's a story that we like to tell,
Down in the back room we know so well.
Where these blackout monkeys woke-up often.
In a dirty saloon, yes, the room is a mess,
Where the girls are over thirty,
And the boys are overdressed .
And on the stage played a man they'd call;
They got that speak easy peaking.
And now the floorboards are creaking,
And the men wanna kill him,
Cause their women are peaking.
He threw the false prophet down the wishing well..
Yes, he threw the false prophet down the wishing well,
Now we're talking in dollars and cents
But thats done son, you got her pregnant,
Yes a beautiful baby girl,
What did he call her, his baby girl,
Heaven laughing the day she was born,
He had a daughter and he called her rock ' roll,
She'd say hey big daddy (hey big daddy)
He'd say hey there little daughter,
She'd say hey big daddy (hey big daddy)
He'd say hey there little daughter,
She'd say hey big daddy (hey big daddy)
He'd say hey there little daughter,
She'd say I love you daddy (i love you daddy)
He'd say, I love you rock ' roll!
