Is everyone here dumb as a box of rocks or what? How many times can you ask the same damn question? Are you too lazy or too stupid to look at the previous posts? "Rocky" is song popularized in 1975 by Austin Roberts and Dickey Lee. Got it? No offense, but I think its kind of a lame song. To each their own..

I think all this is just fantastic. I used to have the cd but lost it and am now looking for another. Hard to believe so many others remember it. Every time I ask someone about it, including radio stations, they think I'm talking about the song from the movie, or they've never heard of it..

Yea, Austin Roberts was great. I have several of his albums I bought back in the 70's, but what I REALY want is a GH CD. No luck on that. I would love to hear "Something's Wrong With Me" without all the pops and clicks. Any record company people out there who want to make me happy and put one out?.

"Rocky" sung by Austin Roberts in 1975 was a big hit. You can get the 45s and LPs on ebay. I took a TM class with him in Nashville, TN in 1976. He was a very nice ,down to Earth kind of guy. If anyone knows where he is now I'd like to drop him a message. Rob.

I have also been trying to find out for the last 30 years about this song. I could only remember the chorus and did not know the artist. Must try and get the album now.

It's a kick for me to see the interest in "Rocky." I wrote the song under the name "Jay Stevens." I tried to sing it myself with Bob Montgomery as the producer. When he cut out the entire 2nd verse I knew it wasn't going to work. It was picked up by Chips Momen who had also produced "HONEY" by Bobby Goldsborough in '69. He and Austin Roberts then did it and sent it up to me for approval. I loved it.To this day I have never met Austin Roberts but I do have his phone number. Then Dickie Lee did a country version and it went #1 on the country charts. I've met Dickie several times. How do you get the song? I don't know other than the "oldies collections" already mentioned. Am I still writing? Of course! I put out a new album every year but only for my radio show listeners. Since Si Siman died (my Publisher) I don't know how to mass market my stuff any more because as a business man, I'm a complete moron. God bless you all -- "Your love is safe with me" Woody P. Snow AKA Jay Stevens..

Woody P Snow - thanks for writing such an amazing song. The lyrics have stayed with me for 30 years and I still pull out my old 45 once in a while. It's wonderful to see it still spans generations, memories for us "oldies" and a window for how songs should be for our "newbies" - my daughters love my old songs and are amazed by the stories they tell. Yours is the perfect example..

I can't believe the number of people who don't read this entire thread, quite astounding. Is it a laziness thing, or you can't read?? I also found this song on limewire, downloaded, listened and cried. I haven't heard this song in 20 years, when I was a little girl and my mum and I loved it. I shall be on the lookout now for the Super Hits of the 70s CD. (ps, thanks for the artwork, have uploaded that to the iPod too) Would love to see this song redone... perhaps Rob Thomas could lend his voice?!.
