Bio - Chuck Berry (查克·贝里)[00:00:00]
Lord have mercy got[00:00:04]
To tell it tell it just like[00:00:10]
It is ev'ry word [00:00:12]
Yeah I was living in St Louis[00:00:26]
In the year of nineteen fifty five[00:00:28]
Mama didn't have no great mansion [00:00:34]
Just a little old country dive [00:00:37]
Papa worked all week long [00:00:42]
Try to keep us six kids alive [00:00:45]
So I hitch hiked to Chicago[00:00:51]
Just to hear Muddy Waters play[00:00:54]
I sat and listened to him sing[00:00:59]
Until the early hours of day[00:01:03]
I asked him what I could do to make it[00:01:08]
And it was he who showed me the way[00:01:11]
I went back home and wrote a song[00:01:42]
And made a record I could claim[00:01:46]
The little tune jumped on the charts[00:01:51]
And rode me right on up to fame[00:01:54]
It netted over ten thousand dollars[00:02:00]
And added glory to my name[00:02:02]
I was standing at the airport[00:02:09]
With my guitar in my hand[00:02:12]
And a first class ticket[00:02:17]
Destination movie land[00:02:20]
I will be in Hollywood Mama[00:02:26]
Before the roosters crow again[00:02:29]
When I first started playing music[00:03:00]
Over sixteen years ago[00:03:03]
Every big town in the country[00:03:08]
From St Francisco to Baltimore[00:03:12]
Trying to bring some happy hours[00:03:17]
Doing the only thing I know[00:03:20]
Can't help it but I love it[00:03:25]
Stand here sing to you[00:03:28]
Brings back so many memories[00:03:34]
Many things we used to do[00:03:37]
'Till I see you here again[00:03:43]
Take care good luck to you[00:03:45]
