Come on baby, let the good times roll
Come on baby, let me thrill your soul
Come on baby, let the good times roll, roll all night long

Oh baby, feel so good when you're home
Come on baby, rock me all night long

Come on baby, let's close the door
Come on baby, let's rock some more
Come on baby, let the good times roll, roll all night long

Come on baby, let's close the door
Come on honey, let's rock some more
Come on baby, let the good times roll, roll all night long

Oh baby, feel so good when you're home
Come on baby, rock me all night long

Come on baby, let the good times roll




Come on baby, let me thrill your soul
Come on baby, let the good times roll, roll all night long

At nearly 60 years old, I didn't know this version existed. I first heard it by Slade in 1973 on the Slayed album. This led me to the Bunny Sigler version and a life of musical exploration. I'm still learning. Long live music.
