Well, sometimes I will
Then again, I think I won't
Whoa, sometimes I will
Then again, I think I won't
Sometimes I do
Then again, I think I don't

Ah well, I looked at my watch
And it was nine twenty-one
We're at a rock and roll dance
Having nothing but fun

And we rolled
Oh, reeling and a-rocking
We was reeling and a-rocking
Rolling til the break of dawn

Ah well, I looked at my watch
And it was nine thirty-two
There's nothing I'd rather do
Than dance with you

[Chorus:] And we rolled
Oh, reeling and a-rocking
I was reeling and a-rocking
Rolling til the break of dawn

Ah well, I looked at my watch
And it was nine forty-three
And at the time I spent
She spent with me

[Chorus:]

Ah well, I looked at my watch
And it was nine fifty-four
I said, dance, ballerina girl
Go, go, go

[Chorus:]

Ah well, I looked at my watch
And it was ten twenty-six
I gotta keep on dancing
Til I get my kicks

[Chorus:]

Ah well, I looked at my watch
And it was ten o-five
And, man, I didn't know
If I was dead or alive

[Chorus:]

I looked at my watch
And it was ten twenty-nine
I had to hold her hand
She was still holding mine

And we rolled
Reeling and a-rocking
We was reeling and a-rocking
Rolling til the break of dawn

I looked at my watch
It took me by surprise
I was dancing with a woman
That was twice my size

We rolled
Reeling and a-rocking
Well, we was reeling and a-rocking
Rolling til the break of dawn

I looked at my watch
And it was time to go
The band leader said
We ain't playing no more

[Chorus:]
