Description
It smells like the sea, hot sand, and something like youth, which has not yet been spoiled by mortgages and morning planning meetings. Everything is simple: music is blaring, the moon is shining, someone is laughing, someone is daring to ask someone else to dance for the first time. No drama, no philosophy, no “where is the world headed” - just a rhythm that is impossible not to pick up.
Every movement seems to blow the dust off memories: here is the beach, here are the stars, here are someone's shoulders next to you. In moments like these, life needs no explanation - just step to the right, shake your shoulders, and let your body do the rest. Millie rock, sand under your feet, and a lightness that you will search for long afterwards in your boring everyday life.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Oh, when I was young, my daddy said, "When you go home, find a girl to wed. "
Oh, I met your ma at the old oak pier.
Down in Bauma, ha, and she whispered in my ear. She said, "Hey, boy, can you dance this way?
Roll to your right, let your shoulders sway. One, two, step. Add a clap, shout hey.
Let me see you shake to the Milly Rocking, babe.
Let me see you shake to the Milly Rocking, babe. Roll to your right, let your shoulders sway. One, two, step.
Add a clap, shout hey. Let me see you shake to the Milly Rocking, babe. "
Oh, the stars, they glow where the waters meet.
Oh, we spun around on the sand beneath our feet.
Oh, the night was young and the air was sweet.
Oh, we fell in love when she whispered in my ear.
She said, "Hey, boy, can you dance this way? Roll to your right, let your shoulders sway. One, two, step.
Add a clap, shout hey. Let me see you shake to the Milly Rocking, babe.
Let me see you shake to the Milly Rocking, babe. Roll to your right, let your shoulders sway.
One, two, step. Add a clap, shout hey. Let me see you shake to the Milly Rocking, babe. "
Let me see you shake. Let me see you shake, yeah. Let me see you shake to the
Milly Rocking, babe. Let me see you shake. Let me see you shake, yeah.
Let me see you shake to the Milly Rocking, babe. Let me see you shake.
Let me see you shake, yeah. Let me see you shake to the Milly Rocking, babe. Let me see you shake.
Let me see you shake, yeah. Let me see you shake to the Milly Rocking, babe.
She said, "Hey, boy, can you dance this way?
Roll to your right, let your shoulders sway. One, two, step. Add a clap, shout hey. Let me see you shake to the Milly
Rocking, babe. Let me see you shake to the Milly Rocking, babe.
Roll to your right, let your shoulders sway. One, two, step. Add a clap, shout hey.
Let me see you shake to the Milly Rocking, babe. "
