Broken Arrow Lyrics by Chuck Berry

Rockin’ at the Hops

0

[Verse 1]
Old Chief warriors on a mountain side
(I'll never do that again)
Met up with Geronimo’s enemy tribe
(I'll never do that again)
There was a broken arrow here, and a bloody arrow there
A head broken, back busted, bone bloody bloody bones
Old Chief met up with Geronimo’s tribe
(I'll never do that again)

[Verse 2]
I sent my lady downtown to shop
(I'll never do that again)
She evidently didn’t know when to stop
(I'll never do that again)
Was a mink stolen here and a chinchilla there
A here fur, there fur, fur where I don’t know
Sent my lady downtown to shop
(I'll never do that again)

[Verse 3]
I bet all I had on a hearsay sure shot
(I'll never do that again)
The horse started walking because the sun got hot
(I'll never do that again)
I had a bill lying here and a bill lying there
A home bill, gas bill, all but a dollar bill
I bet all I had on a hearsay sure shot
(I'll never do that again)
