Rockin' My Life Away (Live Version)

Jerry Lee Lewis · Other Songs - Jerry Lee Lewis

From 1492 to 1998

I threw a rock 'n' roll party on my last birthday

Feels good, rockin' my life away

I'm movin' and groovin' and I'm havin' fun night and day



Streamline, fleet line, military brat

I got the general's daughter, taught her where it was at

I'm rockin', rockin' my life away

I'm movin' and groovin' and I'm havin' fun night and day



I know a gal from Texas, she chilli pepper hot

She knows hot to reel it and knows how to rock

I'm rockin', rockin' my life away

I'm movin' and groovin', havin' fun night and day



You know, I like to party and I like to have fun

I'd like to kill her, I've got-a rock on

C'mon, rockin' my life away

Movin' and groovin', I'm havin' fun night and day



How about you girl?



You know, I like some long and I like some lean

I like the way that you shake that thing

I'm rockin', rockin' my life away

I'm movin' and groovin', I'm havin' fun night and day



I gotta have it one more time girl



From 1492 to 1998

I threw a rock 'n' roll party on every birthday

I'm rockin', rockin' my life away

Sayin' a movin' and groovin', havin' fun night and day



I'm rockin'

Rockin'

I'm rockin', rockin' my life away

I'm movin' and groovin', I'm gettin' some night and day
