Everybody's Rockin' lyrics

Well, you heard about the Great Pretender?
I went to see him and he's not the same
Down by the club on the parking lot cinders
I was to meet him and play his game.
Yonder stands the sinner
He calls my name without a sound.

I saw his face in the attic window
Yellin' down through the broken pane
Sinner man! What you got to run for?
Church bells rang when he said that name.

Well, if you've got the craving for some jellyroll
You've got to have it right now
Well, if you've got the craving for some jellyroll
You've got to have it right now
I'm your jellyroll man
I've got to have it right now.

I'm your jellyroll man
I'm your jellyroll man
I'm your jellyroll man
I'm your jellyroll man
I'm your jellyroll man
I've got to have it right now.

When grandma and grandpa get out on the floor
They rock until they drop and then they rock some more
Yeah, everybody's rockin', well, everybody's rockin'
Everybody's rockin', rockin' to the dancin' beat.

From the shaky city down to New Orleans
The Golden Gate to the Bronx and Queens
Everybody's rockin', yeah, everybody's rockin',
Well, everybody's rockin', rockin' to the dancin' beat.

In a matter of time,
There'll be a friend of mine
Gonna come to the coast,
You're gonna see him
Up close for a minute or two
While the ground cracks under you.

By the look in your eyes
You'd think that it was a surprise
But you seem to forget
Something somebody said
About the bubbles in the sea
And an ocean full of trees.

And you now, L.A.

Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry,
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry,
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry.

Well, old man river just keeps on rollin'
On down the line
Like my tears just keep on flowin'
All the time
Can't you hear me cry.

Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry,
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry,
Cry, cry, cry, cry.

Well, somewhere there's a rainbow for me,
I know it's my time
