Good Golly Miss Molly Lyrics
Good golly miss Molly, sure like to ball
Good golly miss Molly, sure like to ball
When you're rocking and a-rolling
Can't hear your mama call
From the early early morning to the early early night
When I caught miss Molly rocking at the house of blue light
Good golly miss Molly, sure like to ball
When you're rocking and a-rolling
Can't hear your mama call.
Mama, papa told me, "Son, you better watch yourself"
If they knew about miss Molly, have to watch my pa myself
Good golly miss Molly, sure like to ball
When you're rocking and a-rolling
Can't hear your mama call
Going to the corner, going to buy a diamond ring
When she hugged me and kissed me, made me ting-a-ling-a-ling
Good golly miss Molly, sure like to ball
When you're rocking and a-rolling, can't hear your mama call
Good golly miss Molly, sure like to ball
When you're rocking and a-rolling
Can't hear your mama call
When I caught miss Molly rocking at the house of blue light
Good golly miss Molly, sure like to ball
When you're rocking and a-rolling
Can't hear your mama call.
If they knew about miss Molly, have to watch my pa myself
Good golly miss Molly, sure like to ball
When you're rocking and a-rolling
Can't hear your mama call
When she hugged me and kissed me, made me ting-a-ling-a-ling
Good golly miss Molly, sure like to ball
When you're rocking and a-rolling, can't hear your mama call

It's about having sex. Balling and rock and roll are terms for having sex.
I beg your pardon. NOT ALWAYS. Yes, I've heard the old 'rock 'n' roll definition 'rockin' in the back seat rollin' down the highway', but there are a lot of songs that the term rock 'n' roll is just talking about dancing. (Twistin' Night Away' and others. And, yes, in the 60's we did call having sex 'balling', but there are also expressions like 'having a 'ball' that have nothing to do with sex. I've loved 'good ol' rock 'n' roll music since I was in grade school, (I'm 66 now) and we didn't see these lyrics...

Deep Purple used some of these lyrics in "Speed King".
Miss Molly was a transvestite prostitute that Little Richard was, shall we say, acquainted with...
Well, if that's true, OK. But I doubt that even .01% of us that grew up with that music knew that. I think we all thought Miss Molly was a chick that loved to 'dance up a storm' at a place called The House Of Blue Lights. There was even a song back in that time called 'The House Of Blue Lights' that was describing a dance club that served good bar b cue ribs if memory serves me correctly. In fact, we used to have such a named club here in the Tulsa, Ok. area. As...

As I said above, I, and I'm sure MANY of the rest of us who still love that old music would prefer to look at the song in a more positive light than that.
