The song is on YouTube: watch the video.

Fifties rock’n’roll: put it down and walk away while the guitar is still ringing.

The lyric

Well I woke up kinda shaky, and I shook a little more

Had a devil in my pocket and a fire in my jaw

But I stomped on that devil on the kitchen floor

And I told him: boy, you don't live here no more

Lay that habit down, lay it down and let it lie

Lay that habit down, and wave it bye-bye-bye

Gonna dance on the ashes, gonna shout and sing

Lay that habit down, it don't mean a thing

Well my lungs are feeling lucky, and my boots are feeling mean

I'm the cleanest, meanest cat this town has ever seen
