"Rockin' It (Live)" lyrics

I grew up lovin' Elvis and wild man Jerry Lee
Chuck Berry, Little Richard, they all cast a spell on me
Carl Perkins and those blue suede shoes had no place on the farm
But they was better than them brogans I was wearin' around the barn!
With my transistor radio my uncle bought for me
I danced and pranced around the smoky hills of Tennessee
Singing, "Don't Be Cruel", "Great Balls of Fire" and "Be good, Johnny B!"
I was just a child, but I went hog wild for the rhythm and the beat!

I've been rockin', rockin', rockin' since the day I was born
I'll be rockin' 'til the day I'm gone!
I've still got rock and roll down in my country soul
And I'll be rockin' it 'til the cows come home, uh-huh

A dancin' foot, a prayin' knee don't fit on the same leg, ha!
That's what that country preacher said when he would plead and beg
"Give up that devil music! It'll send you straight to hell!"
It sent me straight to heaven when I heard that guitar wail
(Rock it, Dolly!) I am rockin' it!

I've been rockin', rockin', rockin' since the day I was born
I'll be rockin' 'til the day I'm gone!
Yeah, I've got rock and roll down in my country soul
And I'll be rockin' it 'til the cows come home

Grab your buck-buck-bucket, boys!
Be careful what you're steppin' in them blue suede shoes!
You wouldn't wanna get no country on you, would ya? Ha!

Here I am on the stage, you all know my name!
With many country accolades, country's in my veins
But since I heard the big news, I ain't never been the same
'Cause they done gone and put me in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!
It's the dangedest thing!

I've been rockin', rockin', rockin' since the day I was born
I'll be rockin' 'til the day I'm gone!
Yeah, I've still got rock and roll down in my country soul
And I'll be rockin' it 'til the cows come home

Y'all put me in the Hall of Fame, so I guess there ain't no shame!
That I'll be rockin' it 'til the cows come home
Yeah, I'll be rockin' it 'till the cows come home
More cow bell!
