Well I got a girl they call Skinnie Minnie
She may be skinny but she's got plenty
The kind of lovin' that I desire
The kind of love that sets my soul on fire
Skinnie Minnie, man that gal can love
She's long and lean like a stringbean
She don't look good in blue jeans
Her hair hangs down like a rag mop
She makes my heart go flippedy-flop
She can't cook, she ain't much on looks
The things she knows, she didn't read in books
Skinnie Minnie, man that gal can love
When me and Minnie walk down the street
All the boys stop and stare
But if they knew just what I do
You bet your life they'd love her too
Well, when I kiss her out in the dark
I tear the thing up, there's so much spark
Skinnie Minnie, man that gal can love
Eddie Cochran (Edward Raymond Cochran; October 15, 1938 – April 17, 1960) was an American singer and songwriter considered one of the pioneers of rockabilly. His music, characterized by fast tempos, incisive guitar riffs, and energetic lyrics, had a profound influence on pop music in the 1950s and 1960s. Cochran was born in Albertville, Alabama, but moved to California as a child. He began his musical career playing in Los Angeles clubs before signing with Liberty Records in 1957. His first success was "Summertime Blues", a song that became a rockabilly classic and reached number one on the US charts. Other hits include "C'mon Everybody", "Twenty Flight Rock", and "Somethin' Else". Cochran collaborated with artists like Gene Vincent and Jerry Lee Lewis, contributing to defining the aesthetics and style of rockabilly. His career was tragically cut short in a car accident in 1960 at the age of 21. Despite the brevity of his career, Eddie Cochran is considered a fundamental figure in the history of rock and roll.
