Lyrics

Late at night when the hound dogs a howlin',
The baby’s in the cradle and the cats are a prowlin',
Daddy's got to go out in the cold,
To play a lot of rhythm and a rockin' roll,

Chorus
It ain’t funny when is daddy gettin' paid,
I need a lot of money,
Ain’t your rockin' slave,
If I had nickel babe,
It wouldn’t be a shame,
uh huh Baby When is Daddy Gettin' Paid,

I use to know a chick man she liked to bop a lot,
She went to go and see me at the rock a sock hop,
She had lots money,
all the nickels and dimes,
But you didn’t buy my record baby any time,

It ain’t funny when is daddy gettin' paid,
I need a lot of money,
Ain’t your rockin' slave,
If I had nickel babe,
It wouldn’t be a shame,
uh huh Baby When is Daddy Gettin' Paid,

Well you can take your Sandy's or your Baymores too,
Your Wildfire Willie, Or Red Hot and Blue,
But when it comes to rockin',
Baby don’t count me out,
Cause I’m pushin’ double zero's in my bank account,

It ain’t funny when is daddy gettin' paid,
I need a lot of money,
Ain’t your rockin' slave,
If I had nickel babe,
It wouldn’t be a shame,
uh huh Baby When is Daddy Gettin' Paid
