Out of Greeville South Carolina
From the Road House Owl Club Him and Sister Rosa
Down to Dallsa and the Dew Drop Inn
The farthest a man can go and back again
It was in Macon at an all night diner
Trying to catch some it was me he took a shine`ta
Said I better give him some of my old clothes
He`s in the wrong place wrong time and nobody knows
His real name was S.Q.Reeder
Everybody knew him as Esquerita
Black Flash Gordon Rocket `58
The rock around was busting out interstate
Thru the green door there`s a gospel sound
Dressed in sequins war paint listen to him holler
I guess the Georgia peach came a little too late
The rock around`s busting out interstate
Houlaaa
His real name was S.Q.Reeder
Everybody knew him as Esquerita
Black Flash Gordon Rocket `58
The rock around was busting out interstate
Been a long time here in California
Western Union I heard from Sister Rosa
The telegram said S.Q. had pa**ed away
Well now preacher what you gotta say
His real name was S.Q.Reeder
Everybody knew him as Esquerita
Black Flash Gordon Rocket `58
The rock around was busting out interstate
His real name was S.Q.Reeder
Beat up on his woman with a vacuum cleaner
Black Flash Gordon Rocket `58
The rock around was busting out interstate
