Good golly, Miss Molly
Sure like to ball
When you're rockin' and a-rollin'
Can you hear your mama call?

>From the early early mornin' till the early early night
You can see Miss Molly rockin' at the house of blue lights.

My mama 'n' papa told me "Son, you better watch your step"
If I knew my momma 'n' poppa, I'd have to watch my dad myself

I'm going to the corner, gonna buy a diamond ring.
Would you pardon me a-kissin' let me ting-a-ling-a-ling
