Mama, where's my silver shoes?
Mama, where is my perfume?
Mama said, don't go down
But tonight my baby's
Gonna take me downtown

Rock me, roll me, rhythm and
Blues
Rock me, roll me, rhythm and
Blues
Daddy said, don't go down
But tonight the blue fox
Is gonna take me downtown

(Blue fox brought me flowers)
He said
We'll harmonize by starlight
Party-light
Currents of music
Through the fields
And country nights
Music
Be good to yourself
It's the least you can do
Be good to yourself
It's the most you can do
Mr. Fox, I'm ready
Baby, baby, baby
I'm feelin' half crazy
My heart is burnin'
Burnin' for rhythm and blues

Rock me, roll me, rhythm and
Blues
Rock me, roll me, rhythm and
Blues
Mama said, don't go down
But tonight my baby's gonna
Take me downtown
