Gene Vincent & His Blue Caps

Vincent Eugene Craddock (February 11, 1935 – October 12, 1971), known as Gene Vincent, was an American musician who pioneered the styles of rockabilly and rock and roll. His 1956 top ten hit with his backing band the Blue Caps, "Be-Bop-a-Lula", is considered a significant early example of rockabilly. His chart career was brief, especially in his home country of the US, where he notched three top 40 hits in 1956 and '57, and never charted in the top 100 again. In the UK, he was a somewhat bigger star, racking up eight top 40 hits from 1956 to 1961. Vincent was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Rockabilly Hall of Fame. He is sometimes referred to by his somewhat unusual nickname/moniker the "Screaming End". more »

Well I've led an evil life, so they say 
But I'll hide from the devil on judgement day, I said 
Move, hot-rod, move man 
Move, hot-rod, move man 
Move hot-rod, move me on down the the line, oh yeah 

Well me and the devil, at a stop light 
He started rollin', I was out of sight, I said 
Move, hot-rod, move man 
Move, hot-rod, move man 
Move hot-rod, move me on down the the line, oh yeah 

Well, goin' pretty fast, looked behind 
A-hear come the the devil doin' ninety-nine, I said 
Move, hot-rod, move man 
Move, hot-rod, move man 
Move hot-rod, move me on down the the line, oh yeah 

Well thought I was smart, the race was won 
A-hear come the devil doin' a-hundred and one 
Move, hot-rod, move man 
Move, hot-rod, move man 
Move hot-rod, move me on down the the line 

Well, goin' pretty fast, looked behind 
A-hear come the the devil doin' ninety-nine, I said 
Move, hot-rod, move man 
Move, hot-rod, move man 
Move hot-rod, move me on down the the line, oh yeah! 

Well I've led an evil life, so they say 
But I'll hide from the devil on judgement day, I said 
Move, hot-rod, move man 
Move, hot-rod, move man 
Move hot-rod, move me on down the the line
