[Dolly Parton - Rockin’ lyrics]
I grew up lovin' Elvis and wild man Jerry Lee
Chuck Berry, Little Richard
They all cast a spell on me
Carl Perkins and those blue suede shoes
Had no place on the farm
But they was better than them brogans
I was wearin' around the barn!
With my transistor radio my
Uncle bought for me
I danced and pranced around the
Smoky hills of Tennessee
Singing, "Don't Be Cruel", "Great Balls
Of Fire" and "Be good, johnny B!"
I was just a child, but I went hog wild for
The rhythm and the beat!
I've been rockin', rockin'
Rockin' since the day I was born
I'll be rockin' 'til the day I'm gonе!
I've still got rock and roll
Down in my country soul
And I'll be rockin' it 'til
The cows comе home
A dancin' foot
A prayin' knee don't fit on the same leg
That's what that country preacher said when
He would plead and beg
"Give up that devil music! It'll
Send you straight to hell!"
It sent me straight to heaven when
I heard that guitar wail
I've been rockin', rockin'
Rockin' since the day I was born
I'll be rockin' 'til the day I'm gone!
Yeah, I've got rock and roll
Down in my country soul
And I'll be rockin' it 'til
The cows come home
Here I am on the stage, you all know my name!
With many country accolades
Country's in my veins
But since I heard the big news
I ain't never been the same
'Cause they done gone and put me in
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!
I've been rockin', rockin'
Rockin' since the day I was born
I'll be rockin' 'til the day I'm gone!
I've still got rock and roll
Down in my country soul
And I'll be rockin' it 'til
The cows come home
Y'all put me in the Hall of Fame
So I guess there ain't no shame!
And I'll be rockin' it 'til
The cows come home
Yeah, I'll be rockin' it 'till
The cows come home
