Lyrics

Ray's Rockhouse, that's my joint House of soul, git my point We don't care, what's your blues Come in here, lose yo' blues When trouble comes a-knockin' Everything looks better while why rockin' You don't notice trouble while why rockin' Let's rock! That's what we're offerin' you Let's rock! That's what we wantcha' t'do Let's rock! Rock all why' troubles away Let's rock! Rock till the dawnin' o'day Let's rock! Rockhouse is ready t'roll Let's rock! Rockhouse is good f'th'soul Every Saturday night there's a scene That's a part o'the fun Mrs. Tucker will enter the joint In a search for her son Every Saturday night he sneaks out Leavin' her in a lurch But she's lookin' t'bringin' him on home 'Cause tomorrow is church She really hates the rockhouse She's sure the devil is in control here Nothin' but rock'n'roll here Yodle-dole-dole (Echo) Lady who Gotr a lotta rockin' to do Swing - whatta why'waitin'for We gotta plenty o'soul for you Everybody gotta loosen your hip Do a few rolls wait'll why' feel Why'back'll slip then why'rockin' Rock! Let's rock! That's what we're offerin' you Let's rock! That's what we wantcha' t'do Let's rock! Rock all why' troubles away Let's rock! Rock till the dawnin' o'day Let's rock! Rockhouse is ready t'roll Let's rock! Rockhouse is good f'th'soul Sisters of the flockhouse Ain't got no business comin' to th'rockhouse All the people in here Are all in t'sin in here Of this there's no doubt That's why Miz' Tucker is pulling Sam out Rock! Let's rock! That's what we're offerin' you Let's rock! That's what we wantcha' t'do Let's rock! Rock all why' troubles away Let's rock! Rock till the dawnin' o'day Let's rock! Rockhouse is ready t'roll Let's rock! Rockhouse is good f'th'soul
