    to and fro
    Giving to some nervous people a
    fright
    But there is no harm in the Rockytown Light
    III
    Some are more brave and try to find out
    What this great mystery is all
    about
    They'll never find out though they
    try all their might
    What is the cause of the Rockytown
    Light

    They may search how they will
    but they'll never know
    For it's being aseeing a long time

    Floating in mid-air and ever so
    bright
    Wonderful beautiful Rockytown Light.
