Rock It (George Jones song)
"Rock It" is a song written by Bucky Jones and Curly Putman, and recorded by American country music artist George Jones. It was released in October 1984 as the first single from his album Ladies' Choice.
The song is a driving, upbeat country track characterized by its prominent electric guitar riffs and a somewhat rockabilly-influenced rhythm section. Lyrically, "Rock It" speaks of a transformative love that reinvigorates the singer, giving him a renewed sense of energy and excitement for life. The phrase "Rock It" refers to embracing this invigorating feeling and fully committing to the relationship.
"Rock It" reached number 14 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart, becoming a moderate hit for Jones. Although not one of his signature number-one classics, the song remains a noteworthy entry in his discography due to its faster tempo and distinctive musical arrangement which deviated from his more traditionally styled ballads and honky-tonk numbers. It also highlights Jones's vocal versatility and willingness to experiment with sounds outside of his established country style.
