We take you now, to the municipal airport at Memphis, Tennessee where rock'n'roll singer Jerry Lee Lewis and his new bride have just arrived from a tour of the British Isles. Our on-the-spot announcer had just notified us that Mr. Lewis has consented to an interview
Come in, Edward R. Edward
This is Edward R. Edward at the municipal airport in Memphis, Tennessee
Mr. Lewis, I'd like to ask you this question
- How do you feel about being back home?
- Ooh, feels good!
- Well, Jerry, what did you say when the news of your marriage broke over in London?
- Our news is out all over town
- Well, how did you manage to get your marriage license with your wife being so young?
- I told a little lie
- Well, like, Jerry Lee, where did you meet your charming wife?
- Hoppin' at the high school hop
- How did you propose to your wife?
- Open up honey, it's your lover boy me that's knockin'
- Mr. Lewis, I see you have your attractive bride with you. Would you like to tell the audience something about her?
- Rrrr-rrr, yeah
- Well, how do you feel about the whole situation?
- I'm feelin' sorry
- Jerry, next question, do you think women find you attractive?
- Well, I ain't braggin', it's understood
- What did you say when the London critics voiced their opinion of your show?
- I know that I should leave
- Oh, Jerry, here's a question, rather important to our audience. Were the conservative Britons very shaken over your behavior?
- Whole lotta shakin' going on
- What did Queen Elizabeth say about you?
- Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!
- Well, Jerry, what was your reply to the London critics?
- Don't be fooled
- Ladies and gentlemen, Jerry Lee's manager has just stepped off the plane. Let's see if he'll make a statement. Say, sir, could you come over to our microphone? Uh, say, sir? Yeah, thank you
How do you feel about the publicity Jerry Lee has been getting?
- I believe in the worth of the way that I feel
- Well, Jerry, we'd like to wind up our little interview here and we say thanks to you for taking your time. And one more final question, though - how has the whole situation left you Jerry Lee Lewis, feeling?
- Breathless!
