Creedence Clearwater Revival - Good Golly, Miss Molly Lyrics






Good golly, miss Molly,
Sure like to ball.
Good golly, miss Molly,
Sure like to ball.
When you're rockin' and a rollin'
Can't hear your momma call.

From the early early mornin' till the early early night
You can see miss Molly rockin' at the house of blue light.

Good golly, miss Molly,
Sure like to ball.
When you're rockin' and a rollin'
Can't hear your momma call.

Well, now momma, poppa told me: "Son, you better watch your step."
If I knew my momma, poppa, have to watch my dad myself.

Good golly, miss Molly,
Sure like to ball.
When you're rockin' and a rollin'
Can't hear your momma call.

I am going to the corner, gonna buy a diamond ring.
Would you pardon me if it's a nineteen carat golden thing.

Good golly, miss Molly,
Sure like to ball.
When you're rockin' and a rollin'
Can't hear your momma call.

Good golly, miss Molly,
Sure like to ball.
Good golly, miss Molly,
Sure like to ball.
When you're rockin' and a rollin'
Can't hear your momma call.

    Blues and rock-n-roll are brothers. CCR is the greatest rock-n-roll band ever (after the Rolling Stones).

    Ando ya todo golpeado,
    me llevan al hospital
    Me subo a las paredes,
    y a la azotea tambien,
    pero soy medio pendejo y
    siempre caigo como un buey
    Me doy en la maadre!
    haciendo parkour...

    Y por supuesto el video sera weyes dandose en la madre haciendo parour

  30. G.... S....

    I love Creedence, but no matter who tries, no one in this life could sing this song like Little Richard.

  31. E.... Z....

    I would throw this Mfucki%$ song on at my parties back in the day and the babes start to shake everything god gave them

  32. J.... M....

    Fantastic Cover

  33. M.... G....

    Great song! I can’t stop listening to it!

  35. P.... S....

    Polemic

  44. X.... J....

    This is a strong voice yeaaaaaaaa

  45. t.... m....

    arguably the greatest rythm section ever in a rock band+johns guitar and voice

  46. S.... ....

    Gozada na Moly , Rola no Paulo (8)

  47. K.... ....

    Great version of a classic number which I used to have on a vinyl album many years ago.

  48. H.... M....

    Amazing that creedence made covers better than originals...

    H.... M....

    Heron Martinez not really , i prefer richards one

    H.... M....

    @Jp Jackson i think he meant they make better covers than their own original music... however, i could be mistaken 🤔

    H.... M....

    Jovany Valdez he meant that there covers of songs are better than the originals, which is usually the case but this is decent at best to me. I’ll stick with Richard’s

  49. M.... R....

    in 1977 four us rented a big house and at all of our parties before it was over this song came on and everybody is up dancing! I love little Richards but I am sorry,the guitar in this just rocks!

  50. D.... F....

    Lets give the other musicians some credit here, Stu Cook was a great bass player and Doug Clifford was one of the best drummers around and Tom Fogerty kept the rhythm flowing along nicely.

    D.... F....

    Permintt vasionn ablule

  51. c.... l....

    fucking brilliant cover

  52. M.... C....

    The best version of this song ever!!!

    M.... C....

    thanks i think so too.

    M.... C....

    Not at all. Nobody in this life could sing this song like Little Richard.

  53. I.... ....

    ¿Acaso nadie puede pensar en Enrique Guzman y La Plaga? xD

    I.... ....

    No mames!

    I.... ....

    Q no es, la plaga??

  54. H.... J....

    CCR is the Bombay, could jam all day

  55. E.... Z....

    Great Party song

  56. m.... t....

    very cool bro!

  57. e.... c....

    chevere

  58. S.... L....

    Question for english native speakers, can you understand what is he singing without read the lyrcs? I mean, I study english but I can't catch a word in parts like " if it's a nineteen carat golden thing." or " have to watch my dad myself"

    S.... L....

    I am Australian and I also struggle with his accent." It came out of the sky" is even harder. Still love it though.

    S.... L....

    anything but the 19 carat golden thing part thats just ridiculous to say u can understand that. if u do youre lying.

    S.... L....

    Killval Media I had a little trouble, but I understood after a second replay. Again, it's all based on the dialect and form of speech a person talks.

    S.... L....

    yeah i hear ya and ive lived in america my whole life and various parts up and down the east coast. but without knowing the lyrics prior to that itd be really hard to understand either way

    S.... L....

    Killval Media I guess...

  59. w.... ....

    Can't believe a man with a haircut like that sings like this

    w.... ....

    well belive it !

    w.... ....

    Heart oficina stone

  60. C.... ....

    Without the cool guitar, I'd say better luck next time.

    C.... ....

    You're wrong buddy

  61. I.... F....

    EXCELENTEEE

  62. G.... W....

    E for effort still think nothing beats Little Richard voice he had it all in the 50s best rock singer in my book. John comes 2nd but this is just my point of view

  63. T.... t....

    no the singer far surpasses little Richard

  64. J.... C....

    The only singer to *almost* match Little Richard's original vocal... Notice I said *almost*...

    J.... C....

    Tim Bennette f*** you

    J.... C....

    Tim Bennette blow your f****** head out of your ass dumbass wake up

    J.... C....

    Robert Parker back in the sixties we had a Cherokee true Cherokee People moved into our subdivision and everybody thought they were black it's not what you look like it's who you are so it really matter

    J.... C....

    Jimmy Calhoun did you say almost or just kidding?

    J.... C....

    Whom exactly was that?

  65. t.... ....

    Who says John Fogerty is not a great guitar player?! He gets an amazing sound when he plays solo: full of passion and feeling. Every note makes an impact.

  66. E.... R....

    John Fogerty, what an underrated guitar player

    E.... R....

    I thought green river hit #1?

    E.... R....

    Yeah, strange that they never had a #1 singles hit.  But over time,  they've had six platinum albums, with the "Cosmo's" album going quad-platinum.

    E.... R....

    yea, seriously noone knows this band now.. its sad :(

    E.... R....

    Because of the Political environment they were in. The record company's and Radio thought the Band was to neutral about the Vietnam war. In Fact most of their songs were about the Soldiers not the Politics, But Their Music is considered the Music of their Generation. Not Many Groups or Artist have that honor.

    E.... R....

    John Fogerty signed away all the rights to his music early on. He had to fight for decades to get it back. Marc Maron's podcast with him tells the story.

  67. M.... S....

    This song sounds like it would be on a episode of Scooby Doo

    M.... S....

    @Michelle Speelman hahaha scooby and shag just ripping bowls in the back of hte mystery machine

  68. J.... N....

    Rock 'n Roll! ;)

  69. M.... R....

    DAJE!! Ccr the best

  70. s.... ....

    When you're rockin' and a rollin' can't hear your momma call
    On this day in 1969 {March 9th} Creedence Clearwater Revival performed "Good Golly Miss Molly" on the CBS-TV program "The Ed Sullivan Show"...
    CCR covered the song on their second studio album, 'Bayou Country' it was track two of side two and the album reached #7 on Billboard's Top 200 Albums chart {#1 in France}...
    One track from the album, "Proud May"*, reached #2 for three weeks on Billboard's Hot Top 100 Singles chart...
    Tom Fogerty passed away on September 6th, 1990 at the young age of 48...
    May he R.I.P.
    * The quartet also performed "Proud Mary" on the same 'Sullivan' show...

    s.... ....

    When Mama , Papa told me son you better watch your step, if I knew my Mama , Poppa had to watch my Pop myself . ..funny lyrics but rolls nicely when sung

  71. j.... j....

    molly=mdma

    j.... j....

    @jaa jaadiman It does but this wasn't written about the drug. Molly came around as street name for MDMA in the 90s. This song actually came out in 1958 because this song was originally sung by Little Richard. CCR redid the song in 1969. Little too far off in era to be singing about the drug.
