Hank Williams Jr. - Wham, Bam, Sam lyrics

[Hank Williams Jr. - Wham, Bam, Sam lyrics]

Well I went on up to Memphis
And I walked in the bar
Ordered my whiskey and I
Says "I've come far
Up the Mississippi on the Delta Queen
My name is Wham Bam Sam
Drumming king from New Orleans"

That’s right, and I've been summoned here
By the owner now you tell him old Wham Bam
Sam has come to his rescue

Well, then I had a drink with
The leader of the band
And he told me 'bout the
Problems that they had had he said "Sam
Our drummer just don’t roll no more
You're gonna see what I mean when the
Girls come out and do their show"


Alright i see what you mean i'm
Gonna fix that problem

All the girls come out and dance
And then it got mad
'cause the drummer missed a beat
Just like he always had
They would bump and grind
But he would drag on slow
I got my sticks and I sat down
I said: "Let me show you how it goes"
I guess New Orleans is famous
For all of it's horns
But you've got to have a drum
If you want to march along
Hey all you saints looking
For Heaven's stairs
You need old Wham Bam Sam
The drumming king to lead you there

Let's go, boys and girls too
My name is Wham Bam Sam
The drumming king of New Orleans

This song ain't for radio or TV
This song is just for my friends and me
Hey all you saints looking
For Heaven’s stairs you got Wham Bam Sam
The drumming king to lead you there

All right girls, Showtime
