Daddy worked hard to raise
up -and -standing Christian folk
Don't tell no lies or no dirty jokes
But strange things happen at my house
and roll back the rug and dance
across the hardwood floor
Well, they'd rock the house,
Do the strong -paced stuff
roll back the rug and dance
Well, I was just a little more afraid
That I was gonna get stepped on
we sat and played the record machine
Well, she played the songs
with the rock and roll beat
Those were the happiest days
They'd roll back the rug,
roll back the rug and dance
across the hardwood floor
Where they would rock the house,
and stuff in the jug right out
Well they're fine hard workin'
Don't tell no lies and no dirty jokes
But strange things happen in my house
across the hardwood floor
for they to rock the house
Twist and shout, till the strong taste
is stuffing the jug right out
roll back the rug and dance
Roll back the rug, roll back the rug,
roll back the rug and dance
