All Night LongJerry Lee Lewis

Songwriter: Don Chapel Traditional

Producer: Jerry Kennedy

Why ride jockey on a real fast horse
Doin' ninety miles 'round the Derby course
When the crazy horse begins to real and rock
For a cute little filly in some bobby socks
Night long, baby all night long

Real big wheel, drivin' a Cadillac
Pull over to the curves, bend the front seat back
Grabbed my baby, squeezed her big and strong
I said, we're gonna be here all night long
Night long, baby all night long

Well, up in Washington, been to the president
When the secret service let me in on a hint
We got sure proof, your baby done you wrong
She's been runnin' 'round, yeah all night long
Night long, baby all night long

Well, I freezed all pallid in a aeroplane
Doin' three hundred miles flyin' through the rain
Passed a cute little filly (angel) on cloud number nine
Said, come on daddy I'm gonna make you mine
Night long, baby all night long

I said all night long, yeah, all night long
Now won't you say, let's to get together
And let's have some fun all night long

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.
