Break My MindJerry Lee Lewis

Songwriter: John D. Loudermilk

Producer: Jerry Kennedy

Baby, oh, baby
Tell the man at the ticket stand that you've changed your mind
Let me run on out and tell the cab
To keep his meter flyin' or did you say goodbye to me
Babe, you're gonna break my mind

Break my mind, break my mind
Oh, I just can't stand to hear them big jet engines whine
Break my mind, break my mind, oh Lord
If you leave you're gonna leave a babblin' fool behind

Baby, I say, baby
Let me take your suitcase off of them scales in time
Tell the man that you suddenly developed a thing about flyin', flyin'
'Cause if you say goodbye to me
Baby, you know you're gonna break my mind

Break my mind, break my mind
Oh, I just can't stand to hear them big jet engines whine
Break my mind, break my mind, oh Lord
If you leave you're gonna leave a babblin' fool behind

Break my mind, break my mind
Oh, I just can't stand to hear them big jet engines whine
Break my mind, break my mind, oh Lord
If you leave you're gonna leave a babblin' fool behind

Jerry Lee Lewis

Jerry Lee Lewis was a leading figure in the popularization of rock & roll during the 1950s. He was first signed to Sun Records in 1956 where he was labelmates with Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, and other early rock artists. Of those musicians, however, he was the only piano player and combined with his heavy-handed playing style, sexually suggestive lyrics, and provocative stage antics he came to epitomize the rebelliousness of the genre.

He rose to international fame for his 1957 versions of the songs “Great Balls of Fire” and “Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On.”

Lewis' popularity rapidly tumbled, however, when in 1958, when at the age of 22, he married his 13-year-old cousin. Though this scandal continued to tarnish his image, Lewis never retired from music. As of October 2015, he continues to perform live.
