Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
With my transistor radio my uncle bought for me
I danced and pranced around the smoky hills of Tennessee
Singin', "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
[Chorus]
I've been rockin', rockin', rockin' since the day I was born
I'll be rockin' till the day I'm gonе
I've still got rock and roll down in my country soul
And I'll be rockin' it till the cows comе home
Uh-huh
[Verse 3]
"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, ha, it'll send you straight to hell"
It sent me straight to heaven when I heard that guitar wail
Rock it, Dolly
I am rockin' it
[Chorus]
I've been rockin', rockin', rockin' since the day I was born
I'll be rockin' till the day I'm gone
Yeah, I've got rock and roll down in my country soul
And I'll be rockin' it till the cows come home
[Bridge]
Grab your buck-buck-bucket, boys
Be careful what you're steppin' in, in them blue suede shoes
You wouldn't wanna get no country on you, would ya? Ha
[Bridge]
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
It's the dangedest thing
[Chorus]
Rockin', rockin', rockin' since the day I was born
I'll be rockin' till the day I'm gonе
Yeah, I've still got rock and roll down in my country soul
And I'll be rockin' it till the cows comе home
[Outro]
Y'all put me in the Hall of Fame, so I guess there ain't no shame
That I'll be rockin' it till the cows come home
Yeah, I'll be rockin' it till the cows come home
More cow bell
