Eddie Hawkins
Eddie Hawkins owned a shop in the city and state he was born in
And he never blinked an eye at musicians goin’ by his store
Eddie’s only profession was sellin’ guitars he made funds in
‘Til he found out his money could buy him a rock ‘n roll star
Oh Eddie Hawkins won’t you make me a rock ‘n roll star
Eddie, yes we know who you are
You’re the man that we need, you can book us both near and afar
Oh Eddie Hawkins won’t you make me a rock ‘n roll star
Eddie said that he liked what he heard on the tape that we played him
Don’t change your style, 'cause this is the way it should be
He said ‘Hold on awhile and I’ll find you a room you can stay in
But you should cut originality
Oh Eddie Hawkins won’t you make me a rock ‘n roll star
Eddie, yes we know who you are
You’re the man that we need, you can book us both near and afar
Oh Eddie Hawkins won’t you make me a rock ‘n roll star
Left my love for the road to replace a no-show up in Selma
Six-hundred miles and fourteen hours at the wheel
We unloaded the stuff and we set it all up, then I called her
Just one short set the owner said no deal
Oh Eddie Hawkins won’t you make me a rock ‘n roll star
Eddie, yes we know who you are
You’re the man that we need, you can book us both near and afar
Oh Eddie Hawkins won’t you make me a rock ‘n roll star
Oh Eddie Hawkins won’t you make me a rock ‘n roll star
Oh Eddie Hawkins won’t you make me a rock ‘n roll star
OO…Oh yeah!
