All Night Long
Nightly Escapades: Jerry Lee Lewis Spins Tales of Love, Speed, and Presidential Hints
Lyrics
Why ride jockey on a real fast horse
Questioning the choice of riding a fast horse.
Doin' ninety miles 'round the Derby course
Speeding at ninety miles per hour around a racetrack, possibly the Kentucky Derby.
When the crazy horse begins to real and rock
When things become exciting and lively, like a wild horse.
For a cute little filly in some bobby socks
Opting for a charming and attractive girl wearing bobby socks.
Night long, baby all night long
Repetition emphasizing the desire to be with someone all through the night.
Real big wheel, drivin' a Cadillac
A person of influence driving a luxury car, likely a Cadillac.
Pull over to the curves, bend the front seat back
Stopping the car, reclining the front seat, possibly for intimacy.
Grabbed my baby, squeezed her big and strong
Holding onto his sweetheart tightly, emphasizing affection.
I said, we're gonna be here all night long
Expressing the intention to spend an extended time together.
Night long, baby all night long
Reiteration of the desire to be with someone throughout the night.
Well, up in Washington, been to the President
Referencing being in Washington and having access to the President.
When the secret service let me in on a hint
Given insider information from the Secret Service.
We got sure proof, your baby done you wrong
Having evidence or confirmation that one's partner has been unfaithful.
She's been runnin' 'round, yeah all night long
Indicating the partner has been wandering or involved in activities all night.
Night long, baby all night long
Reiteration of the partner's behavior through the night.
Well, I freezed all pallid in an aeroplane
Describing an experience on an airplane in extreme conditions.
Doin' three hundred miles flyin' through the rain
Traveling at a very high speed through adverse weather conditions.
Passed a cute little filly (angel) on cloud number nine
Encountering an attractive and appealing person metaphorically in the clouds.
Said, come on daddy I'm gonna make you mine
Expressing a desire to be romantically involved with the person met in the clouds.
Night long, baby all night long
Reiteration of the desire to spend the night with someone.
I said all night long, yeah, all night long
Emphasizing the intention to spend the entire night together.
Now won't you say, let's to get together
Proposal or invitation to come together and enjoy the night.
And let's have some fun all night long
Encouraging to have fun and spend the entire night together.
