Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I been waitin' in school all day long
A waitin' on the bell to ring so I can go home
Throw my books on the table, pick up the telephone
Hello baby, let's get something goin'
[Verse 2]
Headin' down to the drugstore to get a soda pop
Throw a nickel in the jukebox then we start to rock
My school gal baby gonna tell you some news
You sure look good in them baby-doll shoes
[Verse 3]
Well, it's a one, two, pull off your shoe
Three, four, get out on the floor
Five, six, come get your kicks
Down the corner of Lincoln and 46, yeah
[Verse 4]
I been waitin' in school all day long
A waitin' on the bell to ring so I can go home
Throw my books on the table, pick up the telephone
Hello baby, let's get something goin'
[Verse 5]
Headin' down to the drugstore to get a soda pop
Throw a nickel in the jukebox then we start to rock
But look out baby, gonna tell you some news
You sure look good in them baby-doll shoes
[Verse 6]
It's a one, two, kick off your shoes
Three, four, get out on the floor
Five, six, come get your kicks
Down on the corner of Lincoln and 46, yeah
[Verse 7]
Well, let's go now
[Verse 8]
Well, it's a one, two, pull off your shoes
Three, four, get out on the floor
Five, six, come get your kicks
Down the corner of Lincoln and 46
[Verse 9]
You gotta move, start rockin' baby
Rock, rockin', baby
Gonna rock all night, rock all night
Just wait and see, yeah
