Well I took Annie out
To see a show
But the music that played
Was too slow

And I knew
If I was going to make any ground
I'd have to get some place
Where the music was loud

I said "okay babe what do you want to do"
We can cut on out
If you want to
She looked at me and said
"Just what this place needs
is some good ol' rock and roll
right from the seeds"

Stand in front
Cause she climbed on the stage
And when she opened her mouth
She could really rave
She sang like a bird
And moved like a snake
Suddenly the hall began to shake

Well her body started rocking
On the dance floor
Moving and a shaking
And wanting more
She nearly brought the roof down
With all the rock and roll

Her body started shaking
With the songs that she sang
Even big Lucy and her female gang
Her music was loud
Things were getting hot
Whatever it is
Annie's sure got

Oooh every body started shakin
With the songs that she sang
Even big Lucy and her female gang
The music was loud
Things were getting hot
Whatever it was
Annie's sure got

Yeah Yeah Annie Goodbody
I love you
Yes I do
You know I love you
