Franklin, Aretha - Rock-A-Lott Lyrics






Rock, rock, rock...

It's time to jam, y'all
Freaks, get up against the wall
And let's rock, hey

Ooh, ooh, yeah

No longer will I do all
The things that I used to do
Stood by your side in innocence
For my love was just for you

Well, I'm a big girl now
With big needs and desires
So don't you come around
If you can't take me higher

I like to rock a lot
Throw my love away
On on only one boy
I like to rock a lot
That's how it is of lately
Hey, hey, yeah

I like to rock a lot
I'll take a path and stay
Yes, I will now
I like to rock a lot
Big boy, ooh

Rock, rock, rock...
Oh, yeah, I like to party
Yeah, ooh...

I think it's my turn this time
Not a soul gets by
Games never had no place with me
Jamming is my concern

Just give me one good man
To keep me satisfied
Have you gone underground
And if so, where will you hide
Sweet thing, hey

I like to rock a lot
Throw my love away
On on only one
I like to rock a lot
That's how it is of lately
Yeah, baby

I like to rock a lot
Take a path and stay. oh, baby
I like to rock a lot
Big boy, I am, ooh

Rock, rock, rock...

It's time to rock with Rebe
Yes, it is
Rocking is my soul's desire
And I'm gonna set you on fire

Oh, oh, oh...

I like to rock a lot
Throw my love away, oh, baby
I like to rock a lot
That's how it is of lately
Oh, yes, it is now

I like to rock a lot
Take a path and stay, oh, yeah
I like to rock a lot
Big boy, yeah, ooh, ooh, yeah

Rock, rock, rock...

Step on the funk now
Well, well
Freeze the funk, y'all

I tried to warn you
I tried to warn you
Yeah, yeah...

Rock, rock, rock...

I like it, I like it
I like it, I like it...

    Rodney Dangerfield, Narada, and Aretha all in this video - as though it were made for me.
    Watching it this time I got a crazy Woodstock vibe from the scenes out of Washington Square or Wollman Rink, a document of hip-hop culture way back.

    This is the fun side of Aretha Franklin i remember😎🎧🎶🎤😀

  64. s.... s....

    Didn't this come out around the same time as Genesis' "Land Of Confusion" video? Cause I'm thinking maybe those two videos may have been produced by the same people.

    s.... s....

    skinger skanger Both videos came out in '87, so they may indeed have been produced by the same crew!

  65. R.... I....

    She will be always be in our hearts and in our players Mrs. Franklin her music and legacy will always live on RIP 1942-2018

    B.... C....

    Bob Cummings yes

  87. B.... ....

    Kinda creepy now dat she has passed,,I wonder where dat puppet is now.

    B.... ....

    I think it would have been less creepy if the puppet had blinking eyes. It was the never-ending stare that got me. Still I'm happy to be coming across songs I never knew she did.

  88. K.... ....

    Farewell Aretha. <3 you forever.

  89. C.... L....

    First...2 statments...

    1. Not creepy. That's really on you.
