Best Answer

Rockabilly is a music culture, much the same way punk, goth/emo, metal, etc. Greasers were usually young adults born to lower to lower-middle class families and started out as street gangs. Eventually it moved onto rebellious youth. Greasers were interested in fast hot rods, women, and music. Whearas rockabilly is a culture mainly about the music, greasers tend to have more to do with being motorheads.
