There they go and there goes
My satisfaction on his face
He's got her now and he's so proud
He's walkin' in my place
But I was first, quenched the thirst
A thirst she now can't lose

He's walkin' in my tracks
But he can't fill my shoes

Every where he's goin' I've already been
I made the path that leads the way
For all those other men
No man I know could ever
Go through the hell she put me through

He's walkin' in my tracks
But he can't fill my shoes

Everywhere he goes
Jerry Lee's already been
I made the path that leads the way
For all those other men

No man I know could ever
Go through the hell she put me through
He's walkin' in my tracks
But he can't fill my shoes

He's walkin' in my tracks, but he

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.
