Hollis Dixon and the Keynotes
Playing the Fraternities
I was on drums I didn't play so hot
But I kept a damn good beat
We played a lot of rock n' roll
and some breezy rhythm and blues
That was down in Tuscaloosa 1962
But the Bear and his boys were tearing it up
Every Saturday Afternoon
Saturday night we get all torn down
In the fraternity living rooms
The kids got right, the band got tight
When we laid down that funky groove
That was down in Tuscaloosa 1962
And it was Rollllll Tide all night long
The kids would scream and shout
That was their favorite song
And it was Rolllll Tide all night long
The Kids would scream and shout
That was their favorite song
Some time Dan Penn and the Pallbearers
Were next door doing a show
The gig was over we would all pack up
head on back to Muscle Shoals
but before we left town we would hang around
that local Chat n' Chew
That was down in Tuscaloosa 1962
That was down in Tuscaloosa 1962
