Rockin' All Over The World

ROCKIN' ALL OVER THE WORLD

ABOUT THE SONG:
This is the most successful song Status Quo has ever performed. I.e. this song opened the big "Live Aid" at Wembley back in summer '85. Francis Rossi once said: "God, I wish we could have written this song!!". The song is written by x-CCR John C. Fogerty after CCR split up.

I have copied the lyrics from a CCR-WEB page adding my tabs upon them.

Available on the albums:
