Don't Wake up the Kids Songtext

von Eddie Cochran

Ma and pa, now here you all go again
Givin' a party tryin' to impress your friends
We been tryin' to figure what you spent
This party must have cost a pretty cent
Howlin', rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Sssh, don't wake up the kids please
Look at them doin' that ol' time jitterbug
Tearin' up a brandnew livingroom rug
And when they find that hole burned in the chair
You'd swear with all your might we put it there
Howlin'. rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Sssh, don't wake up them kids you all
Thinkin' there was a recession goin' on
What you gonna do when all your loot is gone
You call all four of us a bunch of cranks
When we don't let you rob our piggy banks
Howlin', rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Don't wake up them kids you all please

Wah, all the kids are peekin' through the crack
The baby found a cushion in the back
From the way he looked we got a hunch
He must have got a hold of some of your punch
Howlin', rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Sssh, don't wake up the kids, don't wake up the kids
Help your parents and all you grab a broom
While we do that dirty living room
And don't you make no noise while you sweep
You know your father's ill, he's tryin' to sleep
Howlin', rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Hey you all, don't wake up them kids in there
