A. Be-Bop-A-Lula Writers*: Bill “Sheriff Tex” Davis / Gene Vincent Published: Lowery Enterprises, BMI Run Time: 2:31 *There is evidence that the song was started in 1955, when Vincent was recuperating from a motorcycle accident at the US Navy hospital in Norfolk, Virginia. There, he met Donald Graves, who supposedly wrote the words to the song while Vincent wrote the tune. The song came to the attention of Davis, who allegedly bought out Graves’ rights to the song for some $50 (sources vary as to the exact amount), and had himself credited as the lyric writer. B. Woman in Love |
