Lyrics Clyde McPhatter

Clyde McPhatter

Rock And Cry

A read a story the other day

Guaranteed to tell you

How to shoo your blues away

You gather up your troubles

And all your bad news

Then you go and get yourself

A pair of dancing shoes

Then you rock (rock, rock)

Yes, rock and cry

Rock, rock, rock and cry

Go on and ock, rock, rock and cry

And you won't be crying long

Just plant a smile

Across your face

Keep spreading joy

All over the place

You're finally catching

And getting rid of the blues

When others get a look

At them dancing shoes

(Rock, rock)

(Rock and cry)

(Rock and cry)

Start running wild

Dance all night

Go right ahead on

And do the town up right

Don't drown your troubles

In those mean old blues

Plant 'em in the soles

Of those dancing shoes

No, you won't be crying long

And you won't be crying long
