Lyrics

I say, (Bb)hey, I’ll be gone to day, but I’ll be back com in’ round the way.

(Eb)Seems like ev ’ry where I go, the (Bb)more I see the less I know.

But I know one thing: that I love you.

I love you, I love you, I love you.

I say,

Rock in’ in the dance hall, mov in’ with you; danc ing in the night and in the mid dle o’ June.

My mom ma told me, don’t lose you, ’cause the best luck I had was you.

I say, (Bb)hey, I’ll be gone to day, but I’ll be back com in’ round the way.

(Eb)Seems like ev ’ry where I go, the (Bb)more I see the less I know.

But I know one thing: that I love you.

I love you, I love you, I love you.

And I said, (Gm)rock in’ in the dance hall, mov in’ with you; I say, (Bb)hey mom ma, hey mom ma, close to you.

(Gm)Rock in’ in the dance hall, mov in’ with you.

I say, (Bb)hey pa pa, hey pa pa, kick off your shoes; (Gm)rock in’ in the dance hall, mov in’ with you; I say, (Bb)hey mom ma, hey mom ma, close to you.

(Gm)Rock in’ in the dance hall, mov in’ with you.

I say, (Bb)hey pa pa, hey pa pa, kick off your shoes; mov in’ with you.

Well, (Bb)my mom ma told me, don’t lose you, ’cause the best luck I had was you.

I say, (Bb)hey, I’ll be gone to day, but I’ll be back com in’ round the way.

(Eb)Seems like ev ’ry where I go, the (Bb)more I see the less I know.

I say, (Bb)hey, I’ll be gone to day, but I’ll be back com in’ round the way.
