The House Is A Rockin' Lyrics
Stevie Ray Vaughan
Lyrics
Well, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother, come on in
Kick off your shoes start losin' the blues
'Cos this old house ain't got nothin' to lose
Seen it all for years, start spreadin' the news
We got room on the floor, come on baby, shake some loose
Well, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother, come on in
Well, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother, come on in
Walkin' up the street you can hear the sound
Of some bad honky-tonkers really layin' it down
They've seen it all for years and got nothin' to lose
So get out on the floor shimmy 'til you shake some loose
Well, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother, come on in
