Rock Me – ABBA

Lyrics: Rock Me

Rock me, give me that kick now

Rock me, show me that trick now

Roll me, you can do magic

Baby, and I can't get enough of it

Rock me, give me that feeling

Roll me, rocking and reeling

Baby, so don't stop doing it, don't stop doing it, now

(Don't stop the rocking, don't stop the rocking

I said don't stop the rocking)

Wanna be wanna be in my baby's arms

Gonna be gonna be

Nice and gentle if you want me to

Just as long as I'm in love with you

Yours for ever, honey, that's what I

Wanna be wanna be wanna be, yeah

Rock me, give me that kick now

Rock me, show me that trick now

Roll me, you can do magic

Baby, and I can't get enough of it

Rock me, give me that feeling

Roll me, rocking and reeling

Baby, so don't stop doing it, don't stop doing it, now

(Don't stop the rocking, don't stop the rocking

I said don't stop the rocking)

Wanna be wanna be with the one that I love, love, love

Gonna be gonna be

With you baby every single night

I can teach you how to rock all right

Your sweet lover, honey, that's what I

Wanna be wanna be wanna be, yeah

Rock me, give me that kick now

Rock me, show me that trick now

Roll me, you can do magic

Baby, and I can't get enough of it

Rock me, give me that feeling

Roll me, rocking and reeling

Baby, so don't stop doing it, don't stop doing it

Rock me (rock me), give me that kick now

Roll me (roll me), show me that trick now

Baby, so don't stop doing it, don't stop doing it

Rock me (rock me), give me that feeling

Roll me (roll me), rocking and reeling

Baby, so don't stop doing it, don't stop doing it
