Elvis Presley Lyrics

"I'm A Roustabout" lyrics



"ROUSTABOUT!" 
"ROUSTABOUT!" 

"Build it up... (UH-HUH) 
Knock it down... (UH-HUH) 
Fold it square... (UH-HUH) 
Roll it around... 
Throw it in the air, stick it in the ground!" 

But it's too bad, (UH-HUH) 
I can't get mad, 
'Cause I'm a Roustabout! (UH-HUH, UH-HUH, UH-HUH) 

"Tie it loose... (UH-HUH) 
Make it tight... (UH-HUH) 
If it's wrong, (UH-HUH) 
Do it right!" 
Makes me kinda feel like I wanna fight! 

But it's too bad, (UH-HUH) 
I can't get mad, 
'Cause I'm a Roustabout! (UH-HUH, UH-HUH, UH-HUH) 

Orders all day and half the night from the boss, 
That guy just doesn't wanna see one minute lost! 

"Stack it up, (UH-HUH) 
In the rear (UH-HUH) 
Better still... (UH-HUH) 
Bring it here!" 
Wanna take it out, stick it in his ear! 

But it's too bad, (UH-HUH) 
I can't get mad, 
'Cause I'm a Roustabout! (UH-HUH, UH-HUH, UH-HUH) 

A handyman is all I am around this place, 
Everytime I turn around, he's right up in my face! 

"Bring it in... (UH-HUH) 
Bring it out!" (UH-HUH) 
When I'm slow, (UH-HUH) 
Boy, he shouts! 
Gettin' awful tired, runnin' in and out! 

But it's too bad, (UH-HUH) 
I can't get mad, 
'Cause I'm a Roustabout! (UH-HUH, UH-HUH, UH-HUH) 

"ROUSTABOUT!" 
"ROUSTABOUT!" 
"ROUSTABOUT!" 
"ROUSTABOUT!" {fades}
