Rockin' with my baby
Rockin' on a Saturday night
Close as we can be now
Everything is feeling just right

Curled up on the sofa
And the lights are down low
There's a fire in the place
A love song on the radio
I'm rockin' with my baby
Rockin' in her love tonight

Rockin' with my baby
Rockin' on a Saturday night
Close as we can be now
Everything is feelin' just right

We won't answer the door or the telephone
To the rest of the world
Nobody's home
I'm rockin' with my baby
Rockin' in her love tonight

Curled up on the sofa
And the lights are down low
There's a fire in the place
A love song on the radio

I'm rockin' with my baby
Rockin' in her love tonight
Oh, yes
I'm rockin' with my baby
Rockin' in her love tonight
