1a canzone al giorno

La visione del film "Elvis" ha aperto in casa un mondo di rock americano degli anni 50-60. Tra playlist su Spotify, Alexa e Youtube non ascoltiamo praticamente altro. Un modo che ho esplorato davvero poco se tra le canzoni che ancora non ho messo c'è anche "Great balls of fire" di Jerry Lee Lewis incisa nel 1957 e recuperata oggi come canzone del giorno. Mi sa che ve ne toccano altre. Ma sono sicuro che non vi dispiacerà troppo. Buon ascolto!

Great balls od fire (Jerry Lee Lewis)

[Verse 1]
You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain
Too much love drives a man insane
You broke my will
But what a thrill
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!

[Verse 2]
I laughed at love 'coz I thought it was funny
You came along and you moved me, honey
I've changed my mind
This love is fine
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!

Kiss me, baby
Mmmmh, it feels good
Hold me, baby
Well, I'm off to love you like a lover should
Oh! You're fine, so kind
Got to tell this world that you're mine, mine, mine, mine

[Verse 3]
I chew my nails and then I twiddle my thumbs
I'm real nervous, but it sure is fun
Come on, baby
You drive me crazy
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!

[Piano Solo]

[Chorus]
Well, kiss me, baby
Mmmmh, it feels good
Hold me, baby
Well, I'm off to love you like a lover should
You're fine, so kind
Got to tell this world that you're mine, mine, mine, mine

[Verse 3]
I chew my nails and I twiddle my thumbs
Real nervous, but it sure is fun
Come on, baby
You're driving me crazy
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!
