Well the way is dark the night is long
I don't care if I never get home
I'm waitin' at the end of the road
Well the stars may not shine and neither the moon
What the heck we don't want no moon
I'm waitin' yeah at the end of the road

You can jump in my Ford and you can give it a gas
Pull out the front don't give me no sass
Take your foot slap it on the floor
When we get together we're gonna shake a little more
Oh the way is dark the night is long I don't care if I never get home
I'm waitin' uh huh at the end of the road yeah

Oh you can jump in my Ford...
Lord I'm waitin' waitin' waitin' at the end of the road

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.
