Roll, Roll Pretty Baby
Young and Able: A Rhythmic Journey of Love and Freedom
Lyrics
Listen to me, baby
Expressing urgency, a call for attention
I'm young and I'm in my prime
Asserting youth and vitality
Listen to me, baby
Reiteration of the speaker's youth and prime
I'm young and I'm in my prime
Emphasizing the speaker's current state of being
Come on up to my house
Inviting the listener to the speaker's house
We'll have a real good time
Suggesting a promise of enjoyable moments
Well, I'm young and I'm able
Asserting capability and knowledge
I swear that I know my stuff
Confidently claiming expertise
Yes, I'm young and I'm able
Reaffirming youth and knowledge
I swear that I know my stuff
Reiterating the speaker's understanding
I'll boogie with you, baby
Expressing a willingness to dance energetically
Until you've had enough
Promising to continue dancing until satisfaction
Roll, roll, roll, roll pretty baby
Encouraging the listener to roll, possibly a dance move or metaphorical expression
Roll, roll, roll, roll, roll pretty baby
-Roll, roll, roll, roll, roll pretty baby
-Boogie with you, baby
Repeating the willingness to dance energetically
Blow my top
Expressing excitement or intensity
Boogie with you, baby
Committing to dancing until the listener requests to stop
'Til you holler stop
(Blank line)
Yes, oh yes, I'm young and feel so fine
Anticipating a physical response from the listener
I'm gonna make those chills
Expressing the intention to evoke a thrilling sensation
Run up and down your spine
-Roll, roll, roll, roll pretty baby
Repetition of the encouragement to roll, reinforcing the energetic and joyful nature of the interaction
Roll, roll, roll, roll, roll pretty baby
-Roll, roll, roll, roll, roll pretty baby
-Roll, roll, roll, roll pretty baby
-Roll, roll, roll, roll, roll pretty baby
-Roll, roll, roll, roll, roll pretty baby
Final repetition of the invitation to roll, emphasizing the speaker's enthusiasm
