I couldn't stop moving when it first took hold
It was a warm spring night in the ol' town hall
There was a group called The Jokers, they were laying' it down
Doncha know I'm never gonna lose that funky sound.

Rock and roll, hoochie koo
Lawdy mama light my fuse
Rock and roll, hoochie koo
Truck on out and spread the news.

The "Squitas"started buzzing 'bout that time o'year.
I'm goin' round buck, she said she'd meet me there
We were rollin' in the grass that grows behind the barn.
When my ears started ringin' like a fire alarm.

Rock and roll, hoochie koo
Lawdy mama light my fuse
Rock and roll, hoochie koo
Truck on out and spread the news.

Hope ya'll know what I'm talkin' about
The way they wiggle that things, it really knocks me out
I'm gettin' high all the time, hope ya'll are too.
Well come-on a little closer, gonna do it to you.

Rock and roll, hoochie koo
Lawdy mama light my fuse
Rock and roll, hoochie koo
Truck on out and spread the news.
That I'm tired of payin' dues
Done said goodbye to all my blues.
Lawdy mama light my fuse.
