ROCKIN' WITH MY BABY
(Malcom Yelvington)
MALCOLM YELVINGTON (SUN 246, 1956)

Well, you heard Sixteen Tons and Blue Suede Shoes
You heard Kokomo and The Birth Of The Blues
And Tutti Frutti, but nobody flopped
Everytime they play it, it makes you wanna bop

Now, Tutti Frutti and The Birth Of The Blues
Sixteen Tons and Blue Suede Shoes
Well, there's Maybellene down in Kokomo
Sayin', look out cat, here I go!

I'm wanna rock, rock, rock 'n' roll
Yeah, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll
Well, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll
Come on and rock, rock, rock 'n' roll
We're gonna rock, rock, I'm rockin' with my baby

There's a Boll Weevil and a Jukebox Baby
They're both great and I don't mean maybe
But I'm the one that tought her how
To bop to the boogie with a solid jive

Now there's Tutti Frutti and The Birth Of The Blues
Sixteen Tons and Blue Suede Shoes
There's Maybellene down in Kokomo
Sayin', look out cat, here I go!

I'm gonna rock, rock, rock 'n' roll
Yeah, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll
Well, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll
Come on and rock, rock, rock 'n' roll
We're gonna rock, rock, I'm rockin' with my baby

There's a Boll Weevil and Jukebox Baby
They're both great and I don't mean maybe
But I was the one that tought her how
To bop to the boogie with a solid jive

Tutti Frutti and The Birth Of The Blues
Sixteen Tons and Blue Suede Shoes
There's Maybellene down in Kokomo
Sayin', look out cat, here we go!

We're gonna rock, rock, rock 'n' roll
Yeah, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll
Well, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll
Come on and rock, rock, rock 'n' roll
We're gonna rock, rock, I'm rockin' with my baby
