Lightnin' Slim - Lightning Slim presents Rooster Blues

Rooster Blues

Oh well, the little red rooster told to the little red hen
"I ain't been to see ya, and God knows when"
The little red hen told the little red rooster
"You don't come around, daddy, like you used to"

We got to rock the night, baby
We got to rock the night, baby
We got to rock the night, baby
Yes, we got to rock the night

Oh well, the old black cat told the little gray mouse
"I got a mind to chase you 'round this house"
The little gray mouse told the old black cat
Said, "Look at here daddy, don't treat me like that"

We got to rock the night, baby
We got to rock a while, baby
We got to rock a while, baby
Yes, we got to rock the night

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
Ma'am "I'm gonna lay here on this log"

I've got to rock the night, baby
I've got to rock a while, baby
We got to rock the night, baby
Yes, we gotta rock the night

Oh well, the pink alligator told the old crocodile
"Just hang around mama, I'ma kiss you after a while"
The crocodile said to the pink alligator
"You better kiss me now daddy, let me hang around later"

We got to rock the night, baby
We got to rock the night, baby
We got to rock a while, baby
Yes, we got to rock the night
