LYRICS

Well, I heard the news

There's good rockin' tonight

Well, I heard the news

There's good rockin' tonight

I'm gonna hold my baby as tight as I can

Tonight she'll know I'm a mighty, mighty man

I heard the news

There's good rockin' tonight

I said, meet me in a hurry behind the barn

Don't you be afraid, darlin', I'll do you no harm

I want you to bring along my rockin' shoes, 'cos

Tonight I'm gonna rock away all my blues

I heard the news

There's good rockin' tonight

Well, we're gonna rock

We're gonna rock

Let's rock, c'mon and rock

We're gonna rock all that blues away

Have you heard the news?

Eveybody's rockin' tonight

Have you heard the news?

Eveybody's rockin' tonight

I'm gonna hold my baby as tight as I can

Well, tonight she'll know I'm a mighty, mighty man

I heard the news

There's good rockin' tonight

Well, we're gonna rock, rock, rock

Ah, c'mon and rock, rock, rock

Well, let's rock, rock, rock

Ah, let's rock, rock, rock

Ah, we're gonna rock

All our blues away
