Hooked On Music

Well, it was New Year's Eve, I was 14 that time

I was celebratin' 4 a.m. with them hoodlum friends of mine

I heard a boy named Elvis Presley singin'

"That's alright, Mama," on the radio

And it turned me on

I've been hooked on music

Hooked on music from that moment on

He-he-hey

Well, all my friends thought I had one brick less than a load

'Cause I'd stop the car and I'd jump out and start dancin' in the road

When I heard Jerry Lee Lewis singin'

"Whole lot of shakin' goin' on"

It turned me on

And I've been hooked on music

Hooked on music from that moment on

He-he-hey

Well, well, I'm stealing fancy hubcaps off them cowboys' pickup trucks

Fender skirts and mudflaps, anything to make a buck

I'd sell 'em right back to 'em out behind the rodeo

Just to make a little money to treat my little honey to a rock 'n' roll show

And I hung around that skatin' rink where Buddy Holly played

I could not believe one man could have such fun and still get paid

When I heard that local DJ playin', "That'll be the day"

It turned me on, said it turned me on

I've been hooked on music

Hooked on music from that moment on

He-he-hey

Alright, give me some

Whoo, ooh, ooh, ooh

Well, well, I finally got some tickets to see Elvis live and hot

And my girlfriend almost jumped my bones goin' back to the parking lot

I knew that it was not my great physique, good looks, and charm

That left that Texas teenybopper's nail prints in my arm

So I bought myself a guitar, and I wrote me a lady's song

And I could change the name to fit my latest flame

And that sucker never came out wrong

I'd sit back and sing it soft and low

Watch 'em as it slowly turned 'em on

I'd turn 'em on

I've been hooked on music

Hooked on music from that moment on

He-he-hey

Well, dee-dee-dee-dee

Dee-dee-dee-dee
