Lyrics:
That song is a-driving me crazy, I gotta hear it again
First time I heard it, I was with some friends
It's a simple little song you can sing along with an old time melody
So would you play that crazy little song again for me
That song is a-driving me crazy, I gotta hear it again
First time I heard it, I was with some friends
It's a simple little song you can sing along with an old time melody
So would you play that crazy little song again for me
I love that part about break my heart and baby please come home
And I love that line about a-hurtin' my mind and my beer ain't got no
foam
That song is driving me crazy, I gotta hear it again
First time I heard it, I was with some friends
It's a simple little song you can sing along with an old time melody
So would you play that crazy little song again for me
(Instrumental Break)
Well you sing high and I'll sing low and everybody sing along
But everybody quit while I get my kick singin' bring that boogie home
Hmmmm, that song is a a-driving me crazy, I gotta hear it again
First time I heard it, I was with some friends
It's a simple little song you can sing along with an old time melody
So would you play that crazy little song again for me
Okay gang...well that song is driving me crazy, I gotta hear it again
First time I heard it, I was with some friends
It's a simple little song you can sing along with an old time melody
So would you play that crazy little song again for me
That song is a-driving me crazy, I gotta hear it again
First time I heard it, I was with some friends
It's a simple little song you can sing along with an old time melody
So would you play that crazy little song again for me
