We-ell, we're gonna rocka
To the rhythm and the blues tonight
Rock cos ev'rything's gonna be all right
Cos tonight, we're gonna
Rock to the rhythm and the blue-ue-ue-ues
Well I got a little gal I call, Ollie Vee
Ollie Vee comes from Memthis, Memthis Tennesie
And tonight, we're gonna
Rock-a-rock around with Ollie Vee, Olli-olli Vee
Ollie Vee says she's gonna treat me right tonight
I'm gonna wear my blue swede shoes tonight
Cos tonight, we're gonna
Rock-a-rock around with Ollie Vee, Olli-olli Vee
We-ell, we're gonna rocka
To the rhythm and the blues tonight
Rock cos ev'rything's gonna be all right
Cos tonight, we're gonna
Rock to the rhythm and the blue-ue-ue-ues
We-ell, we're gonna rocka
To the rhythm and the blues tonight
Rock cos ev'rything's gonna be all right
Cos tonight, we're gonna
Rock to the rhythm and the blue-ue-ue-ues
I'm gonna shout and a holla and a giggle tonight
I'm gonna shake it just a little in the middle of the night
Cos tonight, we're gonna
Rock-a-rock around with Ollie Vee, Olli-olli-Vee
Well I think Mr. cop's on the beat tonight
He's tryin' to put a stop to me tonight
Cos tonight, we're gonna
Rock-a-rock around with Ollie Vee, Oll-olli-olli
We-ell, we're gonna rocka
To the rhythm and the blues tonight
Rock cos ev'rything's gonna be all right
Cos tonight, we're gonna
Rock to the rhythm and the blue-ue-ue-ues
We-ell, we're gonna rocka
To the rhythm and the blues tonight
Rock cos ev'rything's gonna be all right
Cos tonight, well, we're gonna
Rock to the rhythm and the blue-ue-ue-ues
