Chuck Berry - The Festival lyrics

Your rating:


Havin' a nationwide festival for fourteen days and nights

Ah, there's fifty four bands on a river boat spot in the lights

Hundred of vans and tents all on the banks of the Ohio

Bandstands floatin' from Paducah to Cairo

Be over a million freaks there diggin' the sights



There's so many beautiful people there to love and cheer

Some of the greatest guitar playin' in the western hemisphere

Got the Who, the Band from across the north border Canned Heat

The Fifth Dimension, Creedence Clearwater

Oh, brother Hendrix, sister Joplin, we wish you were here



Early in the mornin' Johnny Cash and old Elvis got loose

By noon, Vanilla Fudge and the Woolies start paying their dues

All evening Ike Turner and Aretha right with the Drifters

And the Coasters in the Loading Zone

All night Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters in a battlin' mood



Oh, what a beautiful show, was sitting right up under the microphone

Diggin' the Grateful Dead, Little Richard and the Rolling Stones

Ray Charles, Led Zeppelin and the Everly Brothers

Bad Bo Diddley and the Beatles and some others

Everybody's laying back and freaking out all week long
