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.

I say, (F)hey mom ma, hey mom ma, hey mom ma, hey mom ma, hey mom ma, hey mom ma, hey mom ma, hey mom ma,

what’s it gon na be?

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

And I know one thing: that I love 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.

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

I say, I know.

But I know one thing, that I love you.

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

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

I love you.

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

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