We still bop and our cars run hot
We're out cuttin' the fool
We're tearin' the town got the top laid down
Like we're back in school
I got a white sport coat and blue suede shoes
We're gonna find us a betty and a bobby sue
chorus
Well don't go tellin' don't go rattin'
Hey baby baby we're out goin' cattin'
Juke joint jammin' tit for tat
And mama don't wait up, wait up
We're out goin' cattin'
Oh yeah, out goin' cattin'
Oh yeah, out goin' cattin'
I got a chevy and we're in it
Gonna take it to the limit
Yeah we're lookin' fine
We'll take it to the hop
Maybe cruise the soda shop
Thinkin' back in time
Well don't say take it easy
Baby we're not through
I'm talkin oop bop a lou bop a lip bam boom
chorus
Well don't go tellin' don't go rattin'
Hey baby baby we're out goin' cattin'
Juke joint jammin' tit for tat
And mama don't wait up, wait up
We're out goin' cattin'
Oh yeah, out goin' cattin'
Oh yeah, out goin' cattin'building cage i can only study the blame
i can think of a word for myself but no name
question darts throw me to the dogs of progress
but they run from what really matters
raised on promises
to the furnace for shade to the dust for a drink
logic's mad and shame doesn't care what you think
the ocean's dry it's only a phantom that you fathom
but the flood comes from the desert
raised on promises
land of the known
free of the brave
they sell us ourselves
the center has moved and water bleeds from broken faces
raised on promises
