Sweet Gene Vincent Young and old and gone Sweet Gene Vincent Who, who, who slapped John?
White face, black shirt White socks, black shoes Black hair, white strat Bled white, died black
Sweet Gene Vincent Let the Blue Caps roll tonight At the Sock Hop Ball in the Union Hall The bop is their delight

Black gloves, white frost Black crêpe, white lead White sheet, black knight Jet black, dead white
Sweet Gene Vincent There's one in every town And the devil drives 'til the hearse arrives And you lay that pistol down
Sweet Gene Vincent With nowhere left to hide With lazy skin and ashtray eyes And perforated pride
