Gene Vincent & His Blue Caps

Vincent Eugene Craddock (February 11, 1935 – October 12, 1971), known as Gene Vincent, was an American musician who pioneered the styles of rockabilly and rock and roll. His 1956 top ten hit with his backing band the Blue Caps, "Be-Bop-a-Lula", is considered a significant early example of rockabilly. His chart career was brief, especially in his home country of the US, where he notched three top 40 hits in 1956 and '57, and never charted in the top 100 again. In the UK, he was a somewhat bigger star, racking up eight top 40 hits from 1956 to 1961. Vincent was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Rockabilly Hall of Fame. He is sometimes referred to by his somewhat unusual nickname/moniker the "Screaming End". more »

Well I heard John say, man, she's my gal
I heard another say, man, she my pal
Well John jumped up, then he screamed
Well-she's may gal, man, and that I mean

Well, who-who, who slapped John? 
Who-who, who slapped John? 
Baby, who slapped John when the lights went low-oh? 
Who-who, who slapped John? 
(jump...go cats go, all you cats cool it, etc.)

Well, the lights went on, then went off
John got slapped tryin' to hold his own
Well, who-who, who slapped John? 
Who-who, who slapped John? 
Baby, who slapped John when the lights went low-oh? 
Who-who, who slapped John? (jump...more of Dickie's adlibs)

Well I heard John say, man, she's my gal
I heard another say, man, she my pal
Well John jumped up, then he screamed
She's may gal, man, and that I mean

Well, who-who, who slapped John? 
Who-who, who slapped John? 
Baby, who slapped John when the lights were low-oh? 
Who-who, who slapped John? 
(jump...go-go-go John go, etc.)

Well, the lights went on, then went off
John got slapped tryin' to hold his own
Well, who-who, who slapped John? 
Who-who, who slapped John? 
Baby, who slapped John when the lights went low-oh? 
Who-who, who slapped John?
