Listen, Hosanna.
To tell you the truth, | haven't worshipped very much since | come to this country.

THEY LAUGH
# Come on, baby, yes, this is it #
# This is the something | just can't miss #
# Come on, baby, let the good times roll #
# Roll all night long #
# Come on, baby, let the good times roll #
# Roll all night long #
# Feels So good #
# When you're home #
# Come on, baby #
# Rock me all night long #
# Come on, baby, let the good times roll #
# Come on, baby, let me thrill your soul #
# Come on, baby, let the good times roll #
# Roll all night long #
