@TheDJGrandPa That's right. These are the lyrics written by Jesse Stone (Charles E. Calhoun) and recorded by Big Joe Turner in 1954. Bill Haley recorded a cleaned-up version later that same year.
BTW, I have heard some truly rockin' fiddles, and I dig the kitten (and her outfit) in this number.
Wow, what a performance. The pianoplayer is play his soul away.

1948? I say around '58 because of the Standel amps.
