       E
Well, Billy bought a Chevy '40 coupe deluxe
                                 A
Chrome wheels, stick shift, hey give her gas,
pop the clutch
        E                           B
Little girls on the corner, like a diamond
they shine
 E                        A
Someday Billy, I'm gonna make 'em all mine

Hey girl, you wanna ride in daddy's Cadillac?
'Cause I love the way your long hair
falls down your back
Bo Diddley, Bo Diddley's at the Seaside Bar
We'll run barefoot in the sand,
listen to his guitar

Chorus:
             C#m
You say your mama's gonna meet you
when the morning comes
       A
Yeah, papa's gonna beat you 'cause
he knows you're out on the run
           E
I'm gonna live a life of love and
tonight you're the one

    G#m                         F#m
The highway is alive tonight so baby do
not be frightened
        G#m
There's something about a pretty girl
on a sweet summer night
     C#m    B  C#m B C#m B
That gets this boy excited
    G#m                               C#m
The radio man finally understands and plays
 you something you can move to
    F#m                 G#m
You lay back easy, cut loose your drive power
      A                      B  A   G#m F#m G#m
Your girl leans over says, "Daddy, can you turn
 A    B    A      G#m F#m G#m F#m
that radio up any louder?"

Ah, the juke joint's hummin', everybody came down
Little Willie and his Soul Brooms
laying all this stuff now
Well, don't let that daylight steal your soul
Get in your wheels and roll,
roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll
Oh, that's alright now
Oh, go on, go on, go on

Chorus:
Oh, mama's gonna meet you when
the morning comes, yeah
And your daddy gonna beat you
'cause he knows you're out on the run
But I don't care, I wanna live
a life of love while the night's still young
Alright now
