Just let me hear some of that rock an' roll music.
Any ol' way you choose it.
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it.
Any ol' time you use it.
It's gotta be rock-roll music,
If you wanna dance with me.
If you wanna dance with me.
I have no kick against modern jazz,
Unless they try to play it too darn fast,
And change the beauty of the melody,
Until it sounds just like a symphony,
That's why I go for that rock an' roll music,
Any ol' way you choose it.
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it.
Any ol' time you use it.
It's gotta be rock-roll music,
If you wanna dance with me.
If you wanna dance with me.
I took my loved one over cross the tracks.
So she can hear my man a wailin' sax.
I must admit they have a rockin' band.
Man they were blowin' like a hurricane.
That's why I go for that rock 'an roll music,
Any ol' way you choose it.
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it.
Any ol' time you use it.
It's gotta be rock-roll music,
If you wanna dance with me.
If you wanna dance with me.
Way down south they gave a jubilee,
The country folks they had a jamboree.
They're drinkin' homebrew from a wooden cup,
The folks dancin', got shook up,
And started playin' that rock 'an roll music,
Any ol' way you choose it.
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it.
Any ol' time you use it.
It's gotta be rock-roll music,
If you wanna dance with me.
If you wanna dance with me.
Don't care to hear 'em play a tango.
I'm in the mood to dig a mambo,
It's way to early for the congo,
So keep a rockin' that piano,
So I can hear some of that rock 'an roll music,
Any ol' way you choose it.
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it.
Any ol' time you use it.
It's gotta be rock-roll music,
