Wake Up, You're Rockin'!

The other night I dozed off watching television

I slipped into a rock and roll nocturnal emission

My hips started moving to that primal drum beat pound

And I howled like a dog harmonizing with that sound

When the sandman starts swinging there just ain't no stopping

Hey man, hey man, wake up man

You're rockin!

It wasn't quite sleepwalkin, more a musical possession

Like a marionette, no control of my obsession

Started cutting up a rug, that dog house bass was thumping

All the cats lost they their minds, the entire joint was jumping

Put my ear on the stage I couldn't help my eaves dropping

Hey man, hey man, wake up man

You're rockin!

Fresh out of prison, Leroy danced with Peggy Sue

Screaming Jay whispered to me "I put a spell on you"

I met Billy Lee Riley, he went on and on

About rock and rolling flying saucers down Area 51

Now I stopped to catch a breath, cast my eyeball across the floor

Saw Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins and even Scotty Moore

Gene and Eddie dropped by, Janis Martin as well

She started singing "Bang Bang", and I went under her spell

Johnny Burnette's all alone in the corner shadow boxing

Hey man, hey man, wake up man

You're rockin!

Well the band was rocking, the entire floor was pumping

An alarm started ringing, everybody took off running

I awoke from my trance, my sheets drenched in sweat

It was one of those dreams man, you never forget

Now I can't stop grooving when that alarm clocks tick-tockin'

Hey man, hey man, wake up man

You're rockin!
