Lyrics

You woman have heard of jalopies, You heard the noise they make, Let me introduce you to my Rocket 88. Yes it's great, just won't wait, Everybody likes my Rocket 88. Baby we'll ride in style, Movin' all along. V-8 motor and this modern design, Black convertible top and the gals don't mind Sportin' with me, ridin' all around town for joy. Blow your horn, Rocket, blow your horn Step in my Rocket and don't be late, We're pullin' out about a half past eight. Goin' on the corner and havin' some fun, Takin' my Rocket on a long, hot run. Ooh, goin' out, Oozin' and cruisin' and havin' fun Now that you've ridden in my Rocket 88, I'll be around every night about eight. You know it's great, don't be late, Everybody likes my Rocket 88. Gals will ride in style, Movin' all along.
