Lyrics

Have you heard the news?
There's a good rockin' at midnight
Gonna hold my baby, all my might
What a wonderful time will be had that night
Hey, hey, a-there's a good rockin' at midnight
Have you heard the news?
There's a good rockin' at midnight
Gonna hold my baby, all my might
What a wonderful time will be had that night
Hey, hey, a-there's a good rockin' at midnight
Sweet Johnny Brown and sweet Lorraine
A-they got caught on Caledonia's land
Susy got stewed and told it all
Fellas got jumpin' and they had a ball
Crying, "Hey, hey, a-there's a good rockin' at midnight"
Aah, you gotta go two times
One time, one time
Ooh, rockin' at midnight, ooh yeah
Ooh, rockin' at midnight, all right, all right
Ooh, rockin' at midnight
Tell y'all about now Deacon Jones
He got so high they had to take him home
I hear some news about-a Elder Brown
He stole a lot of chicks, so then he ran outta town
Crying, "Hey, hey, a-there's a good rockin' at midnight"
Caledonia got drunk and squealed like a pig
A-she fell down and then she lost her wig
Donnie Brown, she laughed and she got sick
Caledonia got mad and then she grabbed a brick
Crying, "Hey, hey, a-there's a good rockin' at midnight"
Aaah, you gotta go two times
Oh yeah, oh yeah, all right!
Do it again, do it again!
Tell y'all about now Deacon Jones
He got so high they had to take him home
I hear some news about-a Elder Brown
He stole a lot of chicks, so then he ran outta town
Crying, "Hey, hey, a-there's a good rockin' at midnight"
Caledonia got drunk and squealed like a pig
A-she fell down and then she lost her wig
Donnie Brown, she laughed and she got sick
Caledonia got mad and then she grabbed a brick
Crying, "Hey, hey, a-there's a good rockin' at midnight"
We gonna rock, we gonna rock
That's right, come on and rock
We gonna rock
There's a good rockin' at midnight, midnight, midnight, you say one time now!
Yeah, yeah
Hey!
Sweet Johnny Brown and sweet Lorraine
A-they got caught on Caledonia's land
Susy got stewed and told it all
The fellas got jumpin' and they had a ball
Crying, "Hey, hey, a-there's a good rockin' at midnight"
We gonna rock, we gonna rock
That's right, we gonna rock
We gonna rock
There's a good rockin' at midnight, midnight, midnight, you say one time now!
(We gonna rock) Hah, what you say?
(We gonna rock) I said a-what you say?
(We gonna rock) you gotta go 'round town
(We gonna rock) you gotta say it again, we gonna rock
There's a good rockin' at midnight, midnight, midnight
(We gonna rock) what you say?
(We gonna rock) woo, what you say?
(We gonna rock) you gotta go 'round town
(We gonna rock) you gotta say it again, we gonna rock
There's a good rockin' at midnight
There's a good rockin' at midnight
