He said she said, “lay out the deathbed” to which I smiled wide and bright
Upside, downside, along the hillside a dingle rocks each fortnight
Live fast we burn our money
Live fast we churn our minds
Live fast we fill our bellies
At last we dance tonight
Take this hand and don’t let go
Rocking through the midnight hour
Lose yourself and lose your soul
Rocking through the midnight hour
He said she said, “lay off the redhead”, to which I howled high and wide
Moonrise, sunrise, and counter clockwise a dingle rocks round and round
Live fast we burn our money
Live fast we churn our minds
Live fast we fill our bellies
At last we dance tonight
Take this hand and don’t let go
Rocking through the midnight hour
Lose yourself and lose your soul
Rocking through the midnight hour
Make a wish and soon you’ll know that those that wish are those that crow
Dance across the seven seas and face the crow so gallantly
Rockin through the midnight hour
Take this hand and don’t let go
Rocking through the midnight hour
Lose yourself and lose your soul
Rocking through the midnight hour
