George Thorogood & The Destroyers - Back to Wentzville lyrics

I'm goin' back to Wentzville Have myself a really good time Back to Wentzville Leave these Memphis blues behind Do you remember Marie? Or sweet Betty Jean? They used to call me long distance from New Orleans I'd ride'em around in my Cadillac car They were sweet rock 'n' rollers, I was their star Cruisin Highway Z in my coupe de ville Until the wee wee hours outside of Wentzville Back to Wentzville, I'll take any airline Back to Wentzville, leave these Memphis blues behind Every Saturday night I had a little rendez-vous Beautiful Delilah I'm a talkin' bout you You pulled the strings to my driftin' heart Together we always will be from the start She's only 16 but oh what a thrill I can hardly wait to get back to Wentzville Back to Wentzville, long distance get me there on time Back to Wentzville, leave these Memphis blues behind Alright Well the good times in St. Louie I can still recall Yeah, the show-me state Sure is great But one of those girls is Baby Doll Woo, back to Wentzville, I'll take any airline Back to Wentzville, leave these Memphis blues behind I took the downbound train for ole Mexico I ran into Lawanda at a rock n roll show We danced right around til our feet got sore Split for Californey in my Mustang Ford She's in the promised land where she waits for me still Cause the law wouldn't let me bring her back to Wentzville Back to Wentzville long distance get me there on time Back to Wentzville, leave these Memphis blues behind Back to Wentzville long distance get me there on time Back to Wentzville, leave these Memphis blues behind
