Crocodile Rock
Dancing Through Time: Crocodile Rock's Nostalgic Journey
Lyrics
Well, I remember when rock was young
Recalling a time in the past when rock music was new and exciting.
Me and Suzie had so much fun
Having enjoyable and memorable experiences with a person named Suzie.
Holding hands and skippin' stones
Engaging in innocent activities like holding hands and skipping stones.
Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own
Having a car (an old gold Chevy) and a place to call one's own.
But, the biggest kick I ever got
Feeling immense excitement or joy.
Was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock
Experiencing a thrilling dance called the Crocodile Rock.
While the other kids were
While other kids were dancing energetically.
Rocking 'round the clock
Engaging in continuous rocking or dancing around the clock.
We were hopping and bopping
Enjoying hopping and dancing specifically to the Crocodile Rock.
To the Crocodile Rock
Emphasizing the excitement and energy of the Crocodile Rock dance.
Croc Rocking is something shocking
Describing the exhilaration and surprise of the Crocodile Rock dance.
When your feet just can't keep still
Feeling unable to control one's feet due to the infectiousness of the dance.
I never knew me a better time
Reflecting on a past period as the best time ever experienced.
And I guess I never will
Expressing doubt about experiencing a better time in the future.
Lawdy mama, those Friday nights
Expressing excitement about memorable Friday nights.
When Suziе wore her dressеs tight
Recalling when Suzie used to wear form-fitting dresses.
The Crocodile Rocking was out of sight
Praising the incredible fun and enjoyment of Crocodile Rocking.
Well, the years went by and
Reflecting on the passing of time and the decline of rock music's popularity.
The rock just died
Noting the decline or end of the rock music era.
Suzie went and left us for some foreign guy
Mentioning Suzie leaving for someone from another country.
Long nights crying by the record machine
Spending nights sad and emotional by the record player.
Dreaming of my Chevy and my old blue jeans
Longing for the past, reminiscing about the Chevy and old blue jeans.
But, they'll never kill the thrills we've got
Believing that the memories and excitement of the past won't fade.
Burning up to the Crocodile Rock
Continuing to feel the same thrill and energy associated with Crocodile Rock.
Learning fast, as the weeks went past
Learning and experiencing life's lessons rapidly over time.
We really thought the Crocodile
Expecting the enduring popularity of Crocodile Rock.
Rock would last (Hey)
Believing that Crocodile Rock would remain popular.
Croc Rocking is something shocking
Reiterating the infectiousness and irresistible nature of Crocodile Rocking.
When your feet just can't keep still
Describing the inability to stop moving to the Crocodile Rock's rhythm.
I never knew me a better time
Expressing doubt about experiencing a better time in the future.
And I guess I never will
Reflecting on a past period as the best time ever experienced.
Lawdy mama, those Friday nights
Excitement about memorable Friday nights.
When Suzie wore her dresses tight
Recalling Suzie's fashion choices and the enjoyment of those times.
The Crocodile Rocking was out of sight
Praising the incredible fun and enjoyment of Crocodile Rocking.
Out of sight i remember when rock was young
Recalling the past when rock music was vibrant and new.
I remember when rock was young
Reiterating the memory of a time when rock music was youthful and exciting.
