Rock ‘n’ Roll (is good for the children) (Glam Rock/Heavy Metal/50’s R’n’B style song)

When I was a little girl,
unacquainted with the world;
Daddy took me on his knee
and said, “Little lady, dance with me”.

He switched on the music box
and turned it to a tune that rocked;
took my hands in his and then
spun me round and round again.

Chorus:
Rock your babies all day long.
Rock ‘n’ Roll is good for the children.
Rocking makes them big and strong.
Rock ‘n’ Roll is good for the children.

When I was about thirteen;
Daddy’s little dancing queen,
I met a boy I liked at school
and he taught me dancing that was cool.

He rocked me fast and rocked me slow;
round the room, we both did go,
me in my new dancing shoes,
Rocking away all our blues.

Chorus:
Rock your babies all day long.
Rock ‘n’ Roll is good for the children.
Rocking makes them big and strong.
Rock ‘n’ Roll is good for the children.

Now I am 18 years old,
boys line up to rock and roll;
little boys who take my hand
and say, “Come on, teach me how to dance”.

Rocking is my biggest joy.
I Rock with girls and Rock with boys.
Even when I’m all alone,
I Rock ‘n’ Roll all on my own.

Chorus:
Rock your babies all day long.
Rock ‘n’ Roll is good for the children.
Rocking makes them big and strong.
Rock ‘n’ Roll is good for the children.

Bridge:
Rocking with my little sister,
Rocking with my brother too;
Rocking with my father and mother,
like a Rocking family ought to do.
