[Verse 1]
I am your main man if you're looking for trouble
I take no lip, no one's tougher than me
I'd kicked your face, you'd soon be seeing double
Hey little girl, keep your hands off of me
[Chorus 1]
I'm a rocker
I'm a rocker
I'm a roller too, baby
I'm a rocker
[Verse 2]
Down at the juke joint me and the boys were stompin'
Bippin' an' boppin' and telling a dirty joke or two
In walked this chick and I knew she was up for something
And I kissed her right there out of the blue
[Verse 3]
I said "Hey baby, meet me I'm a tough guy
Got my cycle outside, you wanna try?"
She just looked at me and rolled them big eyes
And said, "Ooh, I'd do anything for you, 'cause you're a rocker"
[Chorus 2]
That's right
I'm a rocker
I'm a roller too, honey
I'm a rocker
[Bridge 1]
I love to rock and roll
I get my records at the ‘Rock On’ stall
Rock and roll
Teddy boy, you got them all, oh, woah, oh, woah, oh
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge 2]
R-ock-er
I love to rock and roll
I get my records at the ‘Rock On’ stall
Sweet rock and roll
Teddy boy, you got them all, oh, woah, oh woah
[Refrain]
I'm a rocker
