Second skin, not fade away
And idolize twisted cars
When you spin a forty five?
(Cool jerk)
Keep the faith, don't waste
Like taxi cabs and spiders
And look at them boys in leather jackets
Danger girls love leather jackets
Danger girls love leather jackets
The king ain't dead, he's just asleep
Play back to back and that'll be the day
When fashion makes you change
Leather jackets, that'll be the day
Can you talk to Buddy's bones
Play back to back and that'll be the day
And look at them boys, yeah, in leather jackets
And look at them boys, yeah, in leather jackets
And look at them boys in leather jackets
Play back to back and that'll be the day
We all need to smell the heat
Look at them boys in leather jackets
Are the hands stuck on the clock?
Second skin, not fade away
Second skin, not fade away
Oh, leather jackets, that'll be the day
Three thousand miles from home
Second skin, not fade away
Somewhere in the after life
Oh, leather jackets, that'll be the day
Another nickel on another name
Look at them boys in leather jackets
Play back to back and that'll be the day
Danger girls love leather jackets
Leather jackets, that'll be the day
Look at them boys, leather jackets
You know that things go better with chrome
Eternity's just down the road
Be a cool jerk, don't work
They're looking for more riders
Look at them boys
Is Memphis for real or just a song
Is the golden age dead and gone
Leather jackets, that'll be the day
Danger girls love leather jackets
