Oh, the sun goes down and the moon shines bright It's time for a ball on Saturday night People gather 'round like bees on a hive And boys start a-rocking out the real rock drive And I'm gone! Till the break of day It's a real rock drive and they play it in a real gone way Oh, you grab a little gal and you circle like a top When you jump across the floor with a skip and a hop Your pants rolled up and you're truckin' on down With a pretty little gal in a red silk gown And I'm gone! Till the break of day It's a real rock drive and they play it in a real gone way Dance the real rock drive and you ask for more And your feet keep kickin' up splinters in the floor You gotta be sharp and you gotta look alive 'Cause the joint's really rockin' to the real rock drive And I'm gone! Till the break of day It's a real rock drive and they play it in a real gone way If you wanna be happy and glad you're alive Just take off your shoes and do the real rock drive Feelin' sort a low? You're bound to get a treat Just slippin' and a slidin' to a real rock beat And I'm gone! Till the break of day It's a real rock drive and they play it in a real gone way!
