Mixed Up Shook Up Girl
Deville Willy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Jumpin' now, paper clip.
Make a move, sail a ship,
Tap it in, tap it in, ruby lips.
She's a mixed up, shook up girl,
Got me so strung out.
I don't know what to do.
Take a breath, in the night.
Hurry over, she said,
But there was no one in sight.
Now break away, is in her eyes.
You know that little girl, she cut me deep,
Inside out.
She's a mixed up, shook up girl,
Got me so strung out.
I don't know what to do.
She's a mixed up, mixed up, shook up girl.
Hey, you, I remember
All the empty streets.
Fill me now.
And though you're gone away,
I know not forever.
Why don't you just come over here and tell me, baby
Is it over now?
She's a mixed up, shook up girl,
Got me so strung out.
I don't know what to do.
She's a mixed up, mixed up, shook up girl.
She's a mixed up, shook up girl,
She's a mixed up, shook up girl.
And she got me so strung out
She's a mixed up, shook up girl
And she got me so strung out
She's a mixed up, shook up girl

Did you see him get HIGH?
Profesional artists like Willie don't get on stage WACKED out.
Idiots like Jim Morrison did and died from.it
Cancer that's what killed him
.Willie and recently Walter Lure 😞
Willie was a incredible artist and wonderful person and artist.I promoted him
never saw him get WACKED out be 4 a show Never saw him screwed up in public My good friend did a European tour with him
A total professional
Just because someone's considered a rocker dosnt mean he- she's a fuk up always high and a junky
There were a few and it was obvious they'd talk about it though despite it this other fool never missed a show
And he was one of the best
Don't assume things you might of read in some CRAP SCANDLE
Also know the guy did often 2 HR shows
That'll wear you and sweat you out night after night
What Willie did in his private life is whatever he chose On stage he was Willie DeVill and still here in NYC I can say Much missed and loved
That's it.
He was great.
Assumptions are not
@johnmccreedy6821
Willy should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. I hold the man in very high regard.

As a member of the gold circle, Willy will always remembered for each and every song and melody.

@DanofEarth
@precisionbrown6829 literally everything is rock n' roll 👍
@HildeVertommen-og6qs
Also ❤ Freddy Koella, brilliant!!!, those two together!! X
@LarryNeie-lj7zc
In my twenties I bought the first two Mink DeVille albums and still have them. Listening to him would evoke early Van Morrison, Springsteen, Southside Johnny in their formative years. And Yes, Willy deserves R&R Hall of Fame recognition! Soul charisma.
@richardsoper8985
Completely agree-,Dylan says same think about Willy
@user-ku3th9pu3c
Willy was unique among his peers. He is missed and no one could ever replace him in my heart.

In the early 80’s I saw a German TV registration of Willy at Rockpalast and I was flabbergasted how he is living the music. I had to wait until the mid 90’s to see him live in Eindhoven and it was stunning how he plays his music in entire simplicity. No distractions only Willy doing his music.
