My Baby Wants to Rock'n'roll
Homebound Rhythm: Embracing Love and Loyalty in Suzie Candell's Tune
Lyrics
Boy don't get me wrong
Expressing understanding; advising not to misunderstand.
You're good looking as the day is long
Complimenting the person's attractiveness throughout the day.
I'd be in your arms once upon a time
Reflecting on a past romantic connection.
But I got a good man and he
Acknowledging the presence of a good and faithful partner.
Is waiting up for me
Indicating commitment to a waiting partner.
Can't you see I'm not that cheatin' kind
Asserting loyalty and honesty, not inclined to cheat.
I better get on home where my Baby wants to rock n' roll
Deciding to return home where the partner is eager to enjoy rock n' roll.
Home - where I'm gonna get out of control
Anticipating an exciting and unrestrained time at home.
Get out of here while I still can
Expressing the urgency to leave the current situation.
Get it on with my lovin' man
Looking forward to intimate moments with the loved one.
Get on home where my baby wants to rock n' roll
Reiterating the desire to go home where rock n' roll awaits.
A couple of shots of rye
Indulging in alcoholic drinks, possibly to elevate mood.
I'm a little bit more than high
Feeling the effects of alcohol, becoming more than just high.
And I'm laughing a little too loud about your jokes
Laughing loudly, possibly due to the influence of alcohol.
If I know what's good for me
Acknowledging the need to make wise decisions for oneself.
I make like a tree and leave
Using a metaphor to suggest leaving a situation with excessive talk.
Boy you're blowing too much smoke
Warning against insincere or exaggerated statements.
I better get on home where my Baby wants to rock n' roll
Repeating the decision to go home where rock n' roll is desired.
Home - where I'm gonna get out of control
Emphasizing the anticipation of losing control in a positive way at home.
Get out of while I still can
Reiterating the urgency to leave the current situation.
Get it on with my lovin' man
Expressing eagerness to engage in intimate moments with the partner.
Get on home where my baby wants to rock n' roll
Affirming the desire to return home where rock n' roll is favored.
