Just let me hear
Some of that
Rock and 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 and roll music
If you wanna
Dance with me
If you wanna
Dance with me
I've got 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 and 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 and roll music
If you wanna
Dance with me
If you wanna
Dance with me
I took my lover over
'Cross the tracks
So she could hear my
Man a-wailin' sax
I must admit they
Had a rockin' band
Man they were blowin'
Like a hurricane
That's why
I go with that
Rock and 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 and roll music
If you wanna
Dance with me
If you wanna
Dance with me
Way down South
They gave a jubilee
Them country folks
They had a jamboree
And drinkin' home brew
From a wooden cup
The folks a-dancin'
Got all shook up
And started playin'
That rock and 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 and roll music
If you wanna
Dance with me
If you wanna
Dance with me
Don't care to hear
'Em play a tango
Ain't in the mood
To dig a mambo
It's way too early
For the combo
So keep a-rockin'
That piano
So I can hear
Some of that
Rock and 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 and roll music
If you wanna
Dance with me
If you wanna
Dance with me
