Well, the bride looked a picture in the gown that her mama wore
When she was married herself nearly twenty-seven years before She had to change the style a little but it looked just fine They stayed up all night, but they got it finished just in time Now on the arm of her daddy, she's a-walkin' down the aisle And she catches my eye and she gives me a secret smile Maybe it's too old-fashioned, but we once were close friends Oh but the way that she looks today, she never could have then. Well I can see her now in the tight blue jeans Pumpin' all the money in the record machine Spinnin' like a top, you shoulda seen her go I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll Now her proud daddy only wanna give his little girl the best And so he put down a grand on a cozy little lover's nest You could've called the reception an unqualified success At a flash hotel for a hundred and fifty guests Take a look at the bridegroom smilin' pleased as pie Shakin' hands all around with a glassy look in his eye He got a real good job and his shirt and tie is nice But I remember a time when she would never even look him twice But I can see her now drinkin' with the boys Breakin' their hearts like they were toys She used to do the pony, she used to do the stroll I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll Well I can see her now with her headphones on Jumpin' up and down to her favorite song I still remember when she used to wanna make a lot of noise Hoppin' and boppin' with the street corner boys She used to love to party, she used to love to go I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll Hey! |

You went away and left me long time ago
And now you're knocking on my door I hear you knocking But you can't come in I hear you knocking Go back where you've been I begged you not to go but you said goodbye And now you're telling me all your lies I hear you knocking But you can't come in I hear you knocking Go back where you've been You better get back to your used-to-be 'Cause your kind of love ain't good for me I hear you knocking But you can't come in I hear you knocking Go back where you've been I told you, baby, in '52 That I would never go with you I hear you knocking But you can't come in I hear you knocking Go back where you've been |

I bless the day I found you I want to stay around you And so I beg you Let it be me Don't take this heaven from one If you must cling to someone Now and forever Let it be me Each time we meet love I find complete love Without your sweet love What would life be So never leave me lonely Tell me you love me only And that you'll always Let it be me |

Got out really early from the factory Drivin' like a nut in the rain Don't think I was actin' so hysterically But I didn't see a thing until it came Met the dumb suburbos in the takeaway Beating up the Chinee at the counter I put a few inside me at the end of the day I took out my revenge on the revolution counter Crawlin' from the wreckage, Crawlin' from the wreckage You'd think by now at least that half my brain would get the message Crawlin' from the wreckage, Crawlin' from the wreckage Into a brand new car In walks Bud with his exploding nose He's been giving it maximum today Shouted, How the devil, you in trouble, I suppose All you ever do is run away Gunned up the motor inta hyperdrive I wasn't gonna take any of that Don't get bright ideas about a suicide 'Cause all I ever hear is, Zoom, bam, fantastic Crawlin' from the wreckage Crawlin' from the wreckage You'd think by now at least that half a brain would get the message Crawlin' from the wreckage Crawlin' from the wreckage Into a brand new car Crawlin', crawlin', crawlin' from the wreckage Crawlin', crawlin', crawlin' from the wreckage Crawlin', crawlin', crawlin' from the wreckage Crawlin' from the wreckage, Crawlin' from the wreckage Bits of me are scattered in the trees and in the hedges Crawlin' from the wreckage, Crawlin' from the wreckage Into a brand new car Nothin' seems to happen that ain't happened before I see it all through flashes of depression I drop my drink and hit some people runnin' for the door Gotta make some kind of impression 'Cause when I'm disconnected from the drivin' wheel I'm only half the man I should be Metal hitting metal is-a all I feel Everything is good as it poss-i-bul-ly could be Crawlin' from the wreckage, Crawlin' from the wreckage You'd think by now at least that half a brain would get the message Crawlin' from the wreckage, Crawlin' from the wreckage Into a brand new car Crawlin' from the wreckage, Crawlin' from the wreckage Bits of me are scattered in the trees and in the hedges Crawlin' from the wreckage, Crawlin' from the wreckage Into a brand new car Crawlin' from the wreckage, Crawlin' from the wreckage |

She's been around me all the while.
Try as I might, I can't forget her smile. In passing conversation, what did I hear her say? Where did she come from? Who is that woman anyway? What can I do to change her mind? Maybe she thinks that I'm just not her kind. I think she wants me but she's trying to play hard to get. When she treats me this way, I wish we'd never met. Information, that's what I need, Some information. Where did she come from? Information, that's what I need. Some information. Information, that's what I need, Some information.

I can feel you slipping away from me.
A little bit further now every day. I'm holding on, but I can't believe This is how you want it to be. Oh, you're slipping away. Oh, you're slipping away. It feels like walking down a long, dark road. You never talk to me the way you did before. You ride through the city with your head held high. And all I can do is watch you go by. Oh, you're slipping away. Oh, you're slipping away. I'm gonna give it all I've got to give. I've got to hold on, see what tomorrow brings. You're slipping away, but give me one more try. One more chance to wipe these tears from my eyes. You're slipping away. Oh, you're slipping away |
