The Return of Jerry Lee

We take you now to the municipal airport at Memphis, Tennessee
Where rock 'n' roll singer, Jerry Lee Lewis
And his new bride have just arrived from a tour of the British Isles
Our on-the-spot announcer had just notified us
That Mr. Lewis has consented to an interview
Come in, Edward R. Edward

This is Edward R. Edward at the municipal airport in Memphis Tennessee
Mr. Lewis, I'd like to ask you this question
How do you feel about being back home?
Ooh, feels good!
Well, Jerry, what did you say
When the news of your marriage broke over in London?
Our news is out all over town
Well, how did you manage to get your marriage license
With your wife being so young?
I told a little lie

Well, like Jerry Lee, where did you meet your charming wife?
Hoppin' at the high school hop
How did you propose to your wife?
Open up, honey, it's your lover boy me that's knocking
Mr. Lewis, I see you have your attractive bride with you
Would you like to tell the audience something about her?
Rrrr, yeah
Well, how do you feel about the whole situation?
I'm feelin' sorry

Jerry, this question, do you think women find you attractive?
Well, I ain't braggin', it's understood
What did you say when the London critics voiced their opinion of your show?
I know that I should leave
Oh, Jerry, here's a question, rather important to our audience
Were the conservative Britons very shaken over your behavior?
Whole lotta shakin' going on
What did Queen Elizabeth say about you?
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!

Well, Jerry, what was your reply to the London critics?
Don't be fooled
Ladies and gentlemen, Jerry Lee's manager has just stepped off the plane
Let's see if he'll make a statement
Say, sir, could you come over to our microphone?
Uh, say, sir? Yeah, thank you
How do you feel about the publicity Jerry Lee has been getting?
I believe in the worth of the way that I feel

Well, Jerry, we'd like to wind up our little interview here
And we say thanks to you for taking your time
And one more final question, though
How has the whole situation left you, Jerry Lee Lewis, feeling?
Breathless!
