Rockin' Daddy
FISHER Sonny Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

1) Well I'm a-going get me some rockin' shoes
And then I'm going to rock away all my blues
I'm a rockin' daddy, yeah a rockin' daddy
I'm a rockin' daddy from Ding Dong Tennessee

2) Well I told little mama if she'd be good
We'd stay up and rock all night
We're rockin' daddy, yeah rockin' daddy
I'm a rockin' daddy with my brand new rockin' shoes

3) Well I told little mama she could hold me tight
We'd stay up and rock all night




I'm a rockin' daddy, yeah a rockin' daddy
I'm a rockin' daddy from Ding Dong Tennessee
