My mama showed me how to rock in the cradle
But I learned how to roll along
My papa said: Son, gotta get some fun
'Cos when you're old it ain't too good on your own
Been so long since you heard my song
Gonna pick up my guitar and play
Felt so bad when I had to leave you
But I knew that I'd be back some day
So I'm coming home to give you more than you bargained for
Coming home - No mistake, I'm gonna shiver and shake
Coming home - Gonna rock and roll and give you my soul
Coming home - I got over the pain, I'm coming home again
Grooving to American bandstand
B.B. onstage with Lucille
The thrill is gone but it won't be for long
'Cos you know I like to play how you feel
Now that we're back together
Gonna shiver and shake all night
I just gotta say
The music I play will sure enough make you feel alright
Though I learned how to rock in the cradle
And rolling came so easy to me
All the years I travelled the world
Made it so clear to see mmm
It's been so long since you heard my song
Gonna pick up my guitar and play
Felt so bad when I had to leave you
But I knew that I'd be back some day
I'm coming home to give you more than you bargained for
Coming home - No mistake, I'm gonna shiver and shake yeah
Coming home - Gonna rock and roll and give you my soul
Coming home - I got over the pain, I'm coming home again
Coming home - Shiver and shaking, anticipating
Coming home - The thrill is gone but it won't be for long
Coming home...
