One of the more curious aspects of rockabilly is that often times the themes of rockabilly songs tended to be rather silly. In fact, you could almost say that there was an art to taking a goofy theme that might otherwise condemn a song to the category of "novelty song" and making a legitimate rocker out of it. It was almost as if the songwriter was daring the listener to dismiss the song as silly. But the music was so energetic and sincere that these songs could not be shrugged off quite so easily. Here are a few goofy examples that illustrate what I mean.
