The Wilkinsons The Yodelin' Blues lyrics

Billy was a rocker down in Baton Rouge
Liked to sing country in his tennis shoes
He grew up in the sixties on rock and roll
But he got him a gig in a country show

He traveled with them all across the USA
But one night in the middle of the set they say
He got his rockin' rhythm roots and country confused
He sang the yodelin' blues

Well, the band thought Billy was a crazy fool

But that yodelin' thing he did was powerful cool
So they worked all week and they got it just right
To play down at the club again Saturday night

And the crowd went screamin' crazy plum unglued

All the girls thought Billy was a happenin' dude
They said, "He, hey Billy
Do whatever you choose
Just sing the yodelin' blues"

So they got a big buss and a semi too
A hit song, record deal, dream come true
You can see 'em on the TV and the front page news
They're done payin' their dues long as Billy sings the yodelin' blues
