Lyrics
Sweet Cindy Lou, from the banks of Yazoo Was dishing up cornbread and greens When up to the bar strode a rock and roll star Something that she’d never seen. She coo’d in his ear, “Boy, you ain’t from here.” And she wiped off her hands on her side. He said, “That’s astute. And damn girl, you’re cute— “Come out with me for a ride.” The old folks about had their eyeballs bug out And a few had conniptions as well Watching Cindy Lou Revill and a rock and roll devil Take a hard Harley ride into Hell.... [Don’t she know] Life ain’t all giggles and laughter Life ain’t all skittles and beer. Her soul in the sweet sweet hereafter Is all she should think about here.###r Sweet Cindy Lou roared away from Yazoo On the back of a Sportster that night And she never looked back down that long dusty track To the town where her life fit so tight. To Vegas they rode, to the boy’s grand abode Full of servants and hot tubs and blow They drank champagne and Snapple at a cute Elvis chapel Now she dances at the Bellagio.... [Don’t you know] Life ain’t all giggles and laughter Life ain’t all skittles and beer. Happily ever after Is all she was waiting to hear. Life ain’t all skittles and laughter Life ain’t all giggles and beer. Happily ever after Is all we are waiting to hear.
