Rockin' The Night Away

(album: Du - 1994)

When Ricky was young
He picked up the steel guitar
And feeling the heat
He picked up the beat
And overnight became a star
Leaving a trail of glory and gold
He ran out of time before he got old
He's still alive in my soul

And he's rocking the night away
And all the angels came out to play
Let's do the rock, rock, rock
Roll, roll, roll tonight

And he's rocking the night away
And Mary Lou, she is here to stay
Let's do the rock 'n' roll tonight
And feel alright

If Elvis were here
He'd know how to shake the night
He'd make you move
Get into the groove
Dancing till the morning light
And Buddy could sing
Otis had everything
Jimmy was loud
He made us so proud
They're still alive with us tonight

And he's rocking the night away
And all the angels came out to play
Let's do the rock, rock, rock
Roll, roll, roll tonight

And he's rocking the night away
And Peggy Sue, she is here to stay
Let's do the rock 'n' roll tonight
And feel alright

Let's do the rock
Let's do the rock
Let's do the rock
And feel alright
