Well, the joint was rocking.

Going round 'n' round

Yeah, reeling and a-rocking

What a crazy sound

Well, they never stopped rocking

'til the moon went down.

Well it sounded so sweet

I had to take me a chance

I rose out of my seat

And had to dance

I started moving my feet

And clapping my hands.

Yeah, we kept on rocking.

Going round 'n' round

Yeah, reeling and a-rocking

What a crazy sound

Well, they never stopped rocking

'til the moon went down.

About twelve o'clock

When the place was packed

The front doors were locked

I said the place was packed

When the police knocked

Those doors flew back.

But kept on rocking.

Going round 'n' round

Yeah, reeling and a-rocking

What a crazy sound

Well, they never stopped rocking

'til the moon went down.

Yeah...

About twelve o'clock

Around lock up time

Well, the doors were locked

Said the place was packed

When the police knocked

Those doors flew back.

But it kept on rocking.

Going round 'n' round

Yeah, reeling and a-rocking

What a crazy sound

Well, they never stopped rocking

'til the moon went down.

Yeah, it kept on rocking.

Going round 'n' round

Yeah, reeling and a-rocking

What a crazy sound

Well, they never stopped rocking

'til the moon went down.
