Lyric New Old Songs

(Dave Gibson)

Hey mister DJ I m calling you
Now can you play me some real cool tunes
Something that sounds like a long time ago
The kind of music that thrills my soul

You must have something in your record rack
A simple little song that can bring me back to when they

Sang up on the roof
And underneath the boardwalk when they d go
Dancin in the streets
Boogaloon down on Broadway hey when
Lovers used to slow dance all night long
And they knew the words to every song

There s got to be somebody somewhere
Singin some new old songs

Like Otis Redding "Sittin On The Dock"
Or Bill Haley s "Rock Around The Clock"
When Buddy Holly loved sweet Peggy Sue
True love ways were all they knew
There s somethin bout happiness heartbreak and hurt
That leaves me hangin on every word back when they

Sang up on the roof
And underneath the boardwalk when they d go
Dancin in the streets
Boogaloon down on Broadway hey when
Lovers used to slow dance all night long
And they knew the words to every song

Now that radio s on and I m stayin up
Please dedicate it to the one I love like it was when they

Sang up on the roof
And underneath the boardwalk when they d go
Dancin in the streets
Boogaloon down on Broadway hey when
Lovers used to slow dance all night long
And they knew the words to every song

There s got to be somebody somewhere
Singin some new old songs
Just like in the fifties
High on a mountain of love
In the midnight hour
Oh knock on wood
Kiss an angle good morning
Your cheatin heart
