Rooster Blues Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh well the little red rooster told the little red hen
"I ain't been to see you in God knows when"
The little red hen told the little red rooster
"You don't come around, daddy, like you used to"
[Hook]
We got to rock tonight, baby
We got to rock tonight, baby
We got to rock tonight baby, yeah, we got to rock tonight
[Verse 2]
Oh well, the old black cat told the little grey mouse
"I got a mind to chase you 'round this house"
The little grey mouse told the old black cat
Said, "look-a here dad don't chase me like that"
[Hook]
We got to rock tonight, baby
We got to rock tonight, baby
We got to rock tonight, baby; yeah, we got to rock tonight
[Verse 3:]
Oh well the little green frog told the big black snake
Said, "Come on, daddy, let's swim in the lake"
The big black snake told the little green frog
Said, "I'm gonna lay here on this log"
Oh well the little red rooster told the little red hen
"I ain't been to see you in God knows when"
The little red hen told the little red rooster
"You don't come around, daddy, like you used to"
[Hook]
We got to rock tonight, baby
We got to rock tonight, baby
We got to rock tonight baby, yeah, we got to rock tonight
[Verse 2]
Oh well, the old black cat told the little grey mouse
"I got a mind to chase you 'round this house"
The little grey mouse told the old black cat
Said, "look-a here dad don't chase me like that"
[Hook]
We got to rock tonight, baby
We got to rock tonight, baby
We got to rock tonight, baby; yeah, we got to rock tonight
[Verse 3:]
Oh well the little green frog told the big black snake
Said, "Come on, daddy, let's swim in the lake"
The big black snake told the little green frog
Said, "I'm gonna lay here on this log"
[Hook]
I've got to rock tonight, baby
I've got to rock tonight, baby
I've got to rock tonight, baby; yeah, glad to rock with you tonight
Well, let's rock a while then...
{Harmonica solo}
[Verse 4]
Oh well, the pink alligator told the old crocodile
"Just hang around, baby, I'm gon' kiss you after while"
The crocodile said to the pink alligator
"Just kiss me now, dad, and I'll hang around later"
[Hook]
We got to rock tonight, baby
We got to rock tonight, baby
We got to rock tonight, baby; cause' we got to rock tonight
Well, let's rock a while...
I've got to rock tonight, baby
I've got to rock tonight, baby
I've got to rock tonight, baby; yeah, glad to rock with you tonight
Well, let's rock a while then...

We got to rock tonight, baby
We got to rock tonight, baby; cause' we got to rock tonight
Well, let's rock a while...
