Good golly, Miss Molly, sure like a ball.
Good golly, Miss Molly, sure like a ball.
When you’re rockin' and a rollin' can’t hear your momma call.
From the early early mornin' till the early early night
You can see Miss Molly rockin' at the house of blue lights.
Good golly, Miss Molly, sure like a ball.
When you’re rockin' and a rollin' can’t hear your momma call.
Well, now momma, poppa told me: «Son, you better watch your step.»
What I knew about Miss Molly gotta watch my dad myself.
Good golly, Miss Molly, sure like a ball.
When you’re rockin' and a rollin' can’t hear your momma call.
I am going to the corner, gonna buy a diamond ring.
Would you pardon me if it’s a nineteen carat golden thing.
Good golly, Miss Molly, sure like a ball.
When you’re rockin' and a rollin' can’t hear your momma call.
Good golly, Miss Molly, sure like a ball.

Single greatest Rock ‘N Roll ever written and recorded. I wrote a five paper on it in college while getting my degree in American Popular Music. It later became one of my thesis papers towards my masters. It has everything that was Rock ‘N Roll. Wild, manic, crazy Lyrics. Pure energy. Sexual overtones. Race. Uncontrollable beat and rhythm. Can’t sit and put your hands under you butt and ignore your feet tapping. Unbelievable.
This was and is the greatest rock and roll song of all time. This opinion from one who was there at age 14-15 in 1954-55 when rock and roll was just born -- and about 18 when LR rocked the house down with this classic of all rock and roll classics. Like Chuck sang -- hail, hail, rock "n roll . . . hail, hail, LR . . .
