ROCKIN' (ON A HARDWOOD FLOOR)
(Willie Jacobs)
THE STRIKES (IMPERIAL 5446, 1957)

On the hardwood floor, make you yell for more
When the lights are bright, everything's all right
Will you come on down to the middle of the town
What'd ya gonna do when the sun goes down
You wear your shoes to the rhythm and blues
Rockin' on the hardwood floor

You know where we're at, so just grab your hat
When the band plays loud, there's always a crowd
Everybody's rockin' and they're doin' it right
Maybe little baby we will do it tonight
We'll reel and rock till twelve o'clock
Rockin' on the hardwood floor

On a hardwood floor, we gonna let 'em rock
On a hardwood floor, we gonna let 'em rock
On a hardwood floor, we gonna let 'em rock
On a hardwood floor, we gonna let 'em rock
We gonna let 'em rock, we gonna let 'em rock
Rockin' on the hardwood floor

When you rock with me, well, plain to see
Why the gang comes 'round from all over town
Where you get a chance, every kind of dance
Also guys got a great advance
Come on with me and baby you'll see
Rockin' on the hardwood floor

On a hardwood floor, we gonna let 'em rock
On a hardwood floor, we gonna let 'em rock
On a hardwood floor, we gonna let 'em rock
On a hardwood floor, we gonna let 'em rock
We gonna let 'em rock, we gonna let 'em rock
Rockin' on the hardwood floor

When you rock with me, well, plain to see
Why the gang comes 'round from all over town
Where you get a chance, every kind of dance
Also guys got a great advance
Come on with me and baby you'll see
Rockin' on the hardwood floor

On a hardwood floor, we gonna let 'em rock
On a hardwood floor, we gonna let 'em rock
On a hardwood floor, we gonna let 'em rock
On a hardwood floor, we gonna let 'em rock
We gonna let 'em rock, we gonna let 'em rock
