Deep Purple - Speed King Lyrics

Artist: Deep Purple

Album: Deep Purple in Rock

  • Songwriters: Ritchie Blackmore, Ian Gillan, Roger Glover, Jon Lord, Ian Paice

"Good golly", said Little Miss Molly
When she was rockin' in the House Of Blue Light
Tutti Frutti was, oh, so rooty
Rockin' to the east and west

Lucille was, oh, so real
When she didn't do her daddy's will
Come on, baby, drive me crazy, do it, do it

'Cause I'm a Speed King, you've got to hear me sing
Yeah, I'm a Speed King, see me fly

Saturday night and I just got paid
Gonna fool about, ain't gonna save
People gonna rock, people gonna roll
Gonna have a party to save my soul

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 to New Orleans

'Cause I'm a Speed King, you've got to hear me sing
Yeah, I'm a Speed King, see me fly

"Good golly", said Little Miss Molly
When she was rockin' in the House Of Blue Light
Tutti Frutti was, oh, so rooty
Rockin' to the east and west

Hard headed woman and a soft hearted man
They been causing trouble since it all began
Take a little rice, take a little beans
Gonna rock and roll down to New Orleans

'Cause I'm a Speed King, you've got to hear me sing
Yeah, I'm a Speed King, see me fly
I'm a Speed King, you've got to hear me sing
Yeah, I'm a Speed King, see me

Yeah, I'm a Speed King, you've got to hear me sing
Yeah, I'm a Speed King, see me fly
