About Good Golly, Miss Molly

"Good Golly, Miss Molly" is a hit rock 'n' roll song first recorded in 1956 by the American musician Little Richard and released in January 1958 as Specialty single 624 and next in July 1958 on Little Richard. The song, a jump blues, was written by John Marascalco and producer Robert "Bumps" Blackwell. Although it was first recorded by Little Richard, Blackwell produced another version by the Valiants, who imitated the fast first version recorded by Little Richard, not released at this time. Although the Valiants' version was released first (in 1957), Little Richard had the hit, reaching #4. Like all his early hits, it quickly became a rock 'n' roll standard and has subsequently been recorded by hundreds of artists. The song is ranked #94 on the Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. more »

Good golly, miss Molly
Yeah you sure like to ball
Well good golly, miss Molly
Yeah you sure like to ball
When you're shakin'
And a shoutin'
Can you hear your mama call

Well from the early, early morning
To the early, early night
When I caught miss Molly rocking
At the house of blue light, Oooh

Good golly, miss Molly
Yeah you sure like to ball
When you're
Rocking and a rolling
Can you hear your mama call

Well now Mama, papa told me, son
You better watch your step
What I knew about miss Molly
Got to watch my daddy myself

Good golly, miss Molly
Yeah you sure like to ball
Well good golly, miss Molly
Yeah you sure like to ball
When you're shakin'
And a shoutin'
Can you hear your mama call

Well from the early, early morning
To the early, early night
When I caught miss Molly rocking
At the house of blue light, Oooh

Good golly, miss Molly
Yeah you sure like to ball
When you're
Rocking and a rolling
Can you hear your mama call

Yeah good golly, miss Molly
Ah good golly, miss Molly, Oooh
Oh good golly, miss Molly
Yeah you sure like to ball
When you're shakin'
And a shoutin'
Can you hear your mama call
