[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
'Good Golly', said little Miss Molly
When she was rocking in the house of blue light
Tutti Frutti was oh so rooty
Rocking to the east and west
[Verse 2]
Lucille was oh so real
When she didn't do her daddy's will
Come on baby drive me crazy
Come on baby do it
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a speed king
You got to hear me singing
Yeah, I'm a speed king
See me fly
[Verse 3]
Saturday night and I just got paid
Going to fool about isn't going to save
Some people going to rock, people gonna roll
Going to have a party to save my soul
[Verse 4]
Hard-headed woman and a soft-hearted man
They've been causing trouble since it all began
Take a little rice take a little beans
Gonna rock and roll down in New Orleans
[Chorus]
I'm a speed king
You got to hear me singing
Yeah, I'm a speed king
See me fly
[Dueling Organ/Guitar Solo]
[Verse 5]
Good Golly said little Miss Molly
When she was rocking in the house of blue light
Tutti Frutti was oh so rooty
Rocking to the east and west
[Verse 6]
Hard-headed woman and a soft-hearted man
They've been causing trouble since it all began
Take a little rice take a little beans
Gonna rock and roll down in New Orleans
[Outro]
I'm a speed king
You got to hear me singing
Yeah, I'm a speed king
See me fly
I'm a speed king
You got to hear me singing
Yeah, I'm a speed king
See me... hahahahahahaha
I'm a speed king
You got to hear me singing
Yeah I'm a speed king
See me, oh
