Jackknife Beat Lyrics - Calling Card - Rory Gallagher

Shake it, baby, before it shakes you 

Get it, baby and let it take you where you want it to 

Don't say maybe, that just won't do 

You say I'm crazy 'cause this music's got me feeling good 

I got a fever, I don't need no cure 

You're the doctor, I'm your patient that's for sure 

For I'm your patient that's for sure 

Hear it, baby, sneakin' on through 

You'll know it, baby, when the music gets inside your shoes 

It's too late, baby, what can you do? 

Hear it, baby, [Incomprehensible] 

Hear it, baby, sneakin' on through 

You'll know it, baby, when the music gets inside your shoes 

You know it's creeping up on you 

We got a jackknife beat 

Sounds like an ice cream truck rolling down a back street 

We got the whole thing going like a pneumatic drill 

The guitar man playing, he's fit to kill 

We got a jackknife beat, a killer of a backbeat 

Syphon off the syrup, let it take a back seat 

What's cooking in the kitchen has come to a boil 

What's brewing in the basement's bound to overspill 

Shake it, baby, before it shakes you 

Get it, baby and let it take it to where you want it to 

Don't say maybe, that just won't do 

You say I'm crazy this music's got me feeling good 

You call it fever, but I got the cure 

Your the doctor and I'm your patient that's for sure 

I'm the patient that's for sure
