Lyrics

Rocksteady... Rocking Time
Rocksteady... Rocking Time
Rocksteady
Hey don't you know it's not sleeping time (Rocksteady)
Hey don't you know it's not dreaming time (Rocksteady)
Just come alive and let's do our own Rocksteady
Rock steady
You rock away to that steady beat (Rocksteady)
Just Shake your hips and those clumsy feet (Rocksteady)
Do just those and you'll find you could do it
Rocksteady
Well don't you know, I'm the kind of a girl
Who likes to have a groovy time
I always try my best to swing with the rest
So come on boy, it's Rocking Time
Rocksteady
Just Rock away to that steady beat (Rock steady)
Shake your hips and those clumsy feet (Rock steady)
Do just those and you find you could do it Rocksteady
Rocking Time
Rocksteady... Rocking Time
Rocksteady... Rocking Time
Rocksteady.... Rocking Time
Rocksteady... Rocking Time
Rocksteady... Rocking Time
Rocksteady
Well don't you know, I'm the kind of a girl
Who likes to have a groovy time
I always try my best to swing with the rest
So come on boy, it's Rocking Time
(Rocksteady)
Just Rock away to that steady beat (Rocksteady)
Shake your hips and those clumsy feet (Rocksteady)
Do just those and you find you could do it Rocksteady
(Rocking Time)
Rocksteady... Rocking Time
Rocksteady.... Rocking Time
Rocksteady.... Rocking Time
Rocksteady.... Rocking Time
