Up in the mornin'
And out to school
The teacher is teachin'
The golden rule
American History
Practical Math
You're studyin' hard
Hopin' to pass
Workin' your fingers
Right down to the bone
The guy behind you
Won't leave you alone
Ring, ring,
Goes the bell
The cook
In the lunch room's
Ready to sell
You're lucky if
You can find a seat
You're fortunate if
You have time to eat
Back in the classroom
Open your books
Even the teacher
Don't know
How mean she looks
Soon as three o'clock
Rolls around
You finally lay
Your burden down
Close up your books
Get outta your seat
Down the hall and
Into the street
Up to the corner
And 'round the bend
Right to the juke joint
You go in
Drop the coin
Right into the slot
You've gotta
Hear somethin'
That's really hot
With the one you love
You're makin' romance
All day long you've
Been wantin' to dance
Feelin' the music
From head to toe
Round and round
And round you go
Drop the coin
Right into the slot
You've gotta hear
Somethin' that's
Really hot
With the one you love
You're makin' romance
All day long
You've been wantin'
To dance
Feelin' the music
From head to toe
Round and round
And round you go
Hail, hail, rock and roll
Deliver me from
The days of old
Long live rock and roll
The beat of the drums
Loud and bold
Rock, rock,
Rock and roll
The feelin' is there
Body and soul...
