Lyrics

I heard the news: there's good rockin' tonight
Gonna hold my baby tight as I can
Tonight she'll know I'm a mighty man
I heard the news: there's good rockin' tonight
Have you heard the news? Everybody's gonna rock tonight
Gonna hold my baby tight as I can
Tonight she'll know I'm a mighty man
Have you heard the news? There's good rockin' tonight
So meet me in the alley behind the barn
Don't be afraid, I'll do you no harm
Baby, bring my rockin' shoes
'Cause tonight I'm gonna rock away all my blues
Have you heard the news? There's good rockin' tonight
I got the news, everybody's gonna rock tonight
I'm gonna hold my baby tight as I can
Tonight she'll know I'm a mighty man
I got the news, everybody's rockin' tonight
Well Elder Brown, Deacon Jones
They've even left their happy home
They'll be there, just you wait and see
A jumpin' and a stompin' at the jubilee
Hey man, there's good rockin' tonight
Sweet Lorraine, Sioux City Sue
Sweet Georgia Brown, Caldonia too
They'll be there, jumpin' like mad
Hey sister, ain't you glad
We got the news, there's good rockin' tonight
Hoy hoy hoy hoy, there's good rockin' tonight
Hey hey hey hey, everybody's rockin' tonight
Hoy hoy hoy hoy hoy hoy...
