Link Wray’s Girlfriend Lyrics by Stephen Yerkey

Metaneonatureboy

2006

[Verse 1]
I wanna Link Wray’s girlfriend
Just like Conway Twitty was
I wanna play house, and a mighty whole thunder [?]
I wanna feel the wonder
I wanna feel that way because
His baring hands, around that long neck
Oh, I’m dreaming of
I wanna be Link Wray’s girlfriend
I wanna be Link Wray’s turtle dove
[Verse 2]
My mother was [?]
They met in Paris before the war
He said you can call me Manny, or you could call me Ray
You can call me Nicky Sammy
You can call me any name
Was met with smears and innuendo
Before the rest of Vichy France
My mother remembers my dad was hung in black-out windows
Next to the great man’s underpants
[Verse 3]
I used to be Johnnie Ray’s boyfriend
Before Nancy Reagan was
But I never sung like him
Or hung with that crowd
I never swung that way because
The C.I.A. used Johnny, to smuggle arms
To the Cuban refugees
The Bay of Pigs broke Johnnie Ray’s heart
The Kennedy Brothers brought him to his knees
But I used to be Johnnie Ray’s boyfriend
[Verse 4]
I wanna Link Wray’s girlfriend
I ?
Behringer [?] speakers, ? leathers
Make sure ? is the best
I wanna be Link Wray’s walkin’-one-and-only
I wanna keep him safe and warm
This town has got me runnin’
Like a blind jackrabbit
And Oklahoma
Death stone [?]
I wanna Link Wray’s girlfriend
I wanna Link Wray’s girlfriend
[Outro]
I wanna Link Wray’s-
I wanna Link Wray’s-
I wanna Link Wray’s girlfriend
