Born in Detroit City Back in '51
She still looks pretty and she's Loads of fun
Through thick and thin she's been my only one
It's my Crown Victoria Custom '51

The Old Carborator got some head roaters Too
The winston and the Septor engine runs like new
Tear drop skirts, Shiny in the sun
She's my Crown Victoria Custom 51'

Snow white cover roll Front and Back
Speeds over 90 on the paper countack
Foot on the floor and the fifth in my hand
Till we gonna take it to the promis land

Ol' spoked wheels and Tranmitters too
Blinks red and white when the tale lights blew
Wide ball turn and I love the way she runs
She's my Crown Victoria Custom '51

Let's go now

(Piano solo)

Alright sun, here we go

(Guitar solo)

Chop down top, got the four footed dry
I Got my Pretty Baby sittin' By My side
Foot on the floor and the fifth in my hand
Let me rock n roll it to the promis land

Born in Detroit City Back in '51
Still looks pretty and she's Loads of fun
Thick and thin it's been my only one
It's my Crown Victoria Custom '51
It's my Crown Victoria Custom '51
She's my Crown Victoria Custom '51

Ford baby!

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.
