One night I was late
came home from a date
Slipped out of my
shoes at the door
Then from the front room
I heard a jump tune
I looked in and
here's what I saw
There in the night
was a wonderful scene
Mum was dancing with Dad
to my record machine
And while they danced
only one thing was wrong
They were trying to waltz
to a rock and roll song
One two and then rock
One two and then roll
They did the rock
and roll waltz
Rock two three
roll two three
It looked so cute to me
I love the rock and roll waltz
One two and then rock
One two and then roll
One two and then jump
It's good for your soul
It's old but it's new
Let's do the rock
and roll waltz
There in the night
was a wonderful scene
Mum was dancing with Dad
to my record machine
And while they danced
only one thing was wrong
They were trying to waltz
to a rock and roll song
One two and then rock
One two and then roll
One two and then jump
It's good for your soul
It's old but it's new
Let's do the
rock and roll waltz
Let's do the
rock and roll waltz
