Jerry Lee Lewis

Producer: Jerry Kennedy

If I talked about the good times well they wouldn't be much the same
For seldom happy mem'ries come to mind
But if I talked about the sleepless nights that you brought my way
I'd be talkin' (talkin') talkin' all the time
For every dream that came my way a million pass me by
I thought I didn't be hurtin' more and then you said goodbye
If talking now of the good things would get you off my mind
I'd be talkin' (talkin') talkin' all the time

Mhm for every dream that came my way..
Honey I'd be talkin' (talkin') talkin' all the time

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.
