IF THE HOUSE IS ROCKIN'
(Written by Gary Nicholson / Willie Wilson / Michael Henderson)
Hello baby, I'm glad you called
We got a party going on and it's a free for all
I can't quite hear you the music's so loud
Just drive this way 'til you see the crowd
The cars will be parked all up in the yard
The doorbell's busted so knock real hard
No, on second thought
(Chorus)
If the house is rockin' don't bother knocking
If the house is rockin' don't bother knocking
Just step right in and let the fun begin
We got javalina sausage and crawfish stew
Tennessee whiskey and Texas barbecue
Pretty little girls that know how to dance
Doin' the aligator in their leopard skin pants
Tell everyone we're gettin' down tonight
And the only invitation is the party lights
(Repeat chorus)
Started out as Uncle Buddy's birthday bash
Then the Angels dropped by and decided to crash
They big, but they're friendly, havin' a ball
Racin' their Harley's up and down the hall
Teachin' everyone the way to have fun
Singin' "Born to be wild" at the top of their lungs
(Repeat chorus)
Old man came down from across the street
Sayin' ya'll gotta turn down, we can't get no sleep
We found a big band record and we started to groove
Had a few drinks and he was, in the mood
Wife came to the door poundin' and yellin'
Old man smiled, he said, "Shut up Helen"
If the house is rocking don't bother knockin'
(Repeat chorus)
