Rock Medley: Rockin’ Shoes / She’s Too Good for Me / Locomotive

Roy Wood

[Part I: Rockin' Shoes]

[Verse 1]
Sister might come over tonight
Put on your rockin' shoes
While she can too
Rock away to the blues

[Verse 2]
Sweet Melinda, she's a singer
Bring your rockin' shoes
Oh, what a thought
We could rock to the blues

[Bridge]
She won't need a hand
When she shows you what to do
Won't you stick around?
Don't let me down, I beg of you

[Verse 3]
If it's alright, we'll dance till nightfall
Bring your rockin' shoes
Now why don't you
Make a vow to the blues?

[Bridge]
Keep the party jumpin'
Everyone will get a swing
Dance right up to me
So you can be my pretty thing

[Verse 4]
Sister might come over tonight
So wear your rockin' shoes
Ain't gonna stop
We can bop to the blues
Ain't gonna stop
We can bop to the blues

[Part II: She's Too Good For Me]

[Verse 5]
This girl of mine is first in the line
I tried to get to know her
Into the sun she leads me on
Why does she answer, "No sir"?

[Chorus]
She's too good for me
She did all she could for me
But I'm only second class
She's too good for me

[Verse 6]
Into the night, I see the light
It hurts me when she's leavin'
When she is gone, time carries on
Still feel her closely breathin'

[Chorus]
She's too good for me
She did all she could for me
But I'm only second class
She's too good for me

[Bridge]
Man, I was glad she came
Now it seems a shame
Must be losin' her
Now I can shout aloud
Gotta tell the crowd
She's too good for me

[Verse 7]
Reach for the sky, it seems too high
It's been the same for ages
She must believe love's like a book
Keeps turnin' back the pages

[Chorus]
She's too good for me
She did all she could for me
But I'm only second class
She's too good for me

[Bridge]
Man, I was glad she came
Now it seems a shame
Must be losin' her
Now I can shout aloud
Gotta tell the crowd
She's too good for me

[Verse 5]
This girl of mine is first in the line
I tried to get to know her
Into the sun she leads me on
Why does she answer, "No sir"?

[Chorus]
She's too good for me
She did all she could for me
But I'm only second class
She's too good for me
She's too good for me
She did all she could for me
But I'm only second class
She's too good for me
Too good for me

[Part III: Locomotive]

[Verse 8]
Don't need to stand outside alone any more
There's room enough to take you home
You say you might, we know you bite
It serves you right, so you know you might as well

[Chorus]
Do the Locomotive
If you do you'll get promoted
You've got to do it while I've got you in the style
To do the Locomotive

[Verse 9]
Don't try to call up friends I know
They must have heard it on the radio
You swing your hips to make you smile
Your legs are long and you've got the style

[Chorus]
So do the Locomotive
If you do you'll get promoted
You've got to do it while I got you in the style
So do the Locomotive
Do the Locomotive
If you do you'll get promoted
You've got to do it while I've got you in the style
So do the Locomotive (Yeah)

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 8]
Don't need to stand outside alone any more
There's room enough to take you home
You say you might, we know you bite
It serves you right, so you know you might as well

[Chorus]
Do the Locomotive
If you do you'll get promoted
You've got to do it while I've got you in the style
To do the Locomotive
Do the Locomotive
If you do you'll get promoted
You've got to do it while I've got you in the style
To do the Locomotive
