  • I am your main man if you're looking for trouble
    I take no lip no ones tougher than me
    I'd kick your face you'd soon be seeing double
    Hey little girl, keep your hands off me

    I'm a rocker
    I'm a rocker
    I'm a roller too baby
    I'm a rocker

    Down at the juke joint me and the boys were stompin'
    Bippin' an a boppin', telling a dirty joke or two
    In walked this chick and I knew she was up to something
    and I kissed her right there out of the blue

    I said "Hey baby, meet me I'm a tough guy"
    Got my cycle outside, you want to try?
    She just looked at me and rolled them big eyes
    And said "Ooh I'd do anything for you 'cause you're a rocker"

    That's right I'm a rocker
    I'm a roller too honey
    I'm a rocker

    I love to rock and roll
    I get my records and I Rock On stall
    rock and roll
    Teddy boy, he's got them all

    I love to rock and roll
    I get my records and I Rock On stall
    sweet rock and roll
    Teddy boy, he's got them all

    I'm a rocker! Writer/s: BRIAN MICHAEL DOWNEY, ERIC BELL, PHILIP PARRIS LYNOTT
