Oooh yeah, it's been a long time since I rock an' rolled

It's been a long time since I did the stroll

Ooh baby, let me get back, let me get back, let me get back, baby where I come from

It's been a long time, been a long time

Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time, yes it has



It's been a long while since we walked in the moonlight

A-makin' vows that just wouldn't work right

Ooh baby, open your arms, open your arms, open your arms, baby let my love come runnin' in

It's been a long time, been a long time

Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time, rock it



(Guitar Solo)



It's been quite a while since the book of love

I can't stand the tears of a life with no love

Ooh baby, carry me back, carry me back, carry me back, baby where I come from

's been a long time, been a long time

Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time, sure has



Ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah

Ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah

Ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah

Ahh, rock it, rock it

Ooh-yeah, ahhooh-yeah

Ooh-yeah, ahhooh-yeah

It's been a long time, been a long time

A-lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time
