Lyrics Rooster Blues - Lightnin' Slim

Rooster Blues

Oh well the little red rooster told the little red hen
«I ain’t been to see you in 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 grey mouse
«I got a mind to chase you 'round this house»
The little grey mouse told the old black cat
Said, «looka here dad don’t treat me like that»
We got to rock the night baby
We got to rock the night baby
We got to rock the night baby, yeah, 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
Said, «I'm gonna lay here on this log»
I’ve got to rock the night baby
I’ve got to rock the night baby
I’ve got to rock the night baby yes I’m gonna rock with you
Let’s rock awhile then…
Oh well the pink alligator told the old crocodile
«Just hang around, baby, I’m gon' kiss you after while»
The crocodile said to the pink alligator
«Just kiss me now dad and I’ll hang around later»
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
Well come on let’s rock some baby…
