The Ballad Of Annie Goodbody Lyrics

I took Annie out to see a show, but the music they played was just too slow
And I knew if I was gonna make any ground
I'd have to get her someplace where the music was loud

I said "Okay Babe, what d'you want to do, we can cut on out if you want to"
But she looked at me and said, "Just what this place needs
Is some good old rock an' roll, right from the seeds"

I watched in a funk, as she climbed on the stage
But when she opened her mouth, she could really rave
She sang like a bird, and moved like a snake
And suddenly, the room began to shake - ow!

Everybody started rocking on the dance hall floor
Moving and a'shaking and wanting more
So Annie gave out with a bit of soul
She nearly brought the roof down, with all her rock and roll

Everybody started singing with the songs that she sang
Even Big Lucy and her female gang
The music was loud, things were getting hot
Whatever it is, Annie's sure got

(Solo)

Everybody started singing with the songs that she sang
Even Big Lucy and her female gang
The music was loud, things were getting hot
Whatever it is, Annie's sure got

Annie Goodbody, Annie Goodbody, Annie Goodbody, I love you...  (repeats out)
