Rockin' at the Ace Café (Cafe Racer) - The Sabrejets

Well, dig the sound, shakin' the ground

burnin' up the carriageway

Dig the sound of a big 650

Super Rocket BSA

Hot on the tail of a shiny black Bonneville

headin' for the Ace Cafe.

Jimmy comes ridin' the black Bonneville

got a jacket of studded leather

When Jimmy come walkin' in the Ace Cafe

you’d think there was a change in the weather

Got his eyes wide open for a fast lookin' girl

you can bet they’ll be leavin' together.

Ridin', ridin', ridin' to the Ace Cafe

Ridin' ridin' ridin' to the Ace Cafe

On a black Bonneville and a Super Rocket BSA.

Ricky looks cool in a long red jacket

with a jet black velvet lapel

Got a bootlace tie, tight black jeans

and white beetle-crushers as well

Dancin' with Julie to the juke-box rhythm

of The King singin' Heartbreak Hotel.

Red head Julie, turned sixteen

decided she could live on her own

That’s what she said to her father and mother

when she told 'em she was leavin' home

She said «No need to worry, I’ve saved up my money

if I need anymore I’ll 'phone».

Red head Julie, turned sixteen today

She’s dressed to kill, ready to be on her way

Lookin' for action, she found it at the Ace Cafe.

When Julie hit town, she wandered around

lookin' for a place to stay

Then a teenage rocker on a souped-up Tiger Cub

took her to the Ace Cafe

He thought he would score, but then Ricky hit the floor

and stole Julie’s heart away.

Jet black Jimmy stuck his glass on the jukebox

threw his cigarette on the floor

Then he walked up to Rick, who was boppin' so slick

and pointed out the way to the door

Ricky turned 'round slow, said «Boy, you’d better blow,

I’ve flattened better cats than you before».

Call the cops on the double, there’s trouble at the Ace Cafe

Hear the waiter grumble, there’s a rumble at the Ace Cafe

Well, I can’t deny it

there’s a riot at the Ace Cafe.

Julie got wise, tears in her eyes

she was wishin' she was back at home

She shouted «Go on fightin' just as long as you like,

I’d be better off on my own»

Ricky and Jimmy stood starin' at each other

while Julie walked away alone.

She pulled a scarf on her head and ran out into the pourin' rain

Then she hitched a ride on a wagon and was gone again

bumpin' and rollin' back home on the Northbound lane.

And they kept on rockin', rockin', rockin' at the Ace Cafe

Rockin', rockin', rockin' at the Ace Cafe

Rockin', rockin' at the Ace Cafe.

Ridin', ridin', ridin to the Ace Cafe

Ridin' ridin', ridin' to the Ace Cafe

On a black Bonneville and a Super Rocket BSA.
