Rockin’ My Life Away lyrics
by Roy Orbison
[Verse 1]
Fourteen twenty-five and fourteen ninety-eight
I throwed a rock 'n' roll party on my last birthday
[Chorus]
But it's good (Rock), I'm rockin' my life away
I've been movin' and-a groovin' and a-gettin' both night and day
[Verse 2]
I got a gal called Nelly, she's-a chili pepper hot
She knows how to roll, The Killer knows how to rock
[Chorus]
And I'm rockin' (Rock), rockin' my life away
I've been rockin' and a-rollin' and a-movin' both night and day
[Verse 3]
Well the streamline, fleet line, a military brat
She knows the general's daughter, but The Killer top brass
[Chorus]
I'm rockin' (Rock), rockin' my life away
I'm been movin' and movin', and gettin' it both night and day
[Instrumental Break]
Watch me now
[Verse 4]
Here, come on baby, you know what I mean
I likes the way that you shake that thing
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm rockin' (Rock), rockin' my life away
I'm been gettin' it, gettin' it, get-get gettin' it doin' it both night and day
[Instrumental Break]
Hit it, James
[Verse 5]
You better get up off your rocker, boy you don't know what you talk
'Cause I'm a mamma-jammin', mother-humpin', gettin' it, movin' hoss
[Chorus]
And I'm rockin' (Rock), rockin' my life away
I like to rock 'n' roll and I'm durn sure here to stay
[instrumental Break]
Look out now
Yeah
[Bridge]
Rockin' my life away
My name is Jerry Lee Lewis and I'm durn sure here to stay
[Outro]
Let's get it
Rock (Rock)
Rock 'n' roll
Rock (Rock)
Rock 'n' roll
Rock (Rock)
Whoa, rock n' roll (Rock, rock 'n' roll)
Come on, come on, come on, come on
I gotta have one more time
Yeah
