Lyrics:

I heard the news,
There's good rockin' tonight.
Gonna hold my baby tight as I can.
Tonight she'll know I'm a mighty man.
I heard the news,
There's good rockin' tonight.

Oh, lead me in the alley behind the barn.
Don't be afraid, I'll do you no harm.
Baby, bring my rockin' shoes
'Cause tonight I'm gonna rock away all my blues
Have you heard the news,
There's good rockin' tonight.

Well, elder Brown, deacon Jones,
They've even left their happy home.
They'll be there, just you wait and see,
A-jumpin' and a-stompin' at the jubilee.
Hey, man, there's good rockin' tonight.

Sweet Lorraine, Sioux City Sue,
Sweet Georgia Brown, Caledonia too,
They'll be there jumpin' like mad.
Hey, sister, ain't you glad.
We got the news,
There's good rockin' tonight
