Just let me hear some of that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it
It’s got a back beat, you can’t lose it, any old time you use it
Gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me[Verse 1]
Got no kick against modern jazz unless they try to play it too darn fast
And lose the beauty of the melody until they sound just like a symphony
That’s why I go for that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it
It’s got a back beat, you can’t lose it, any old way you use it
It’s gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me
[Verse 2]
I took my loved one over across the tracks so she can hear my man awail a sax
I must admit they have a rocking band, man, they were blowing like a hurricane
That’s why I go for that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it
It’s got a back beat, you can’t lose it, any old time you use it
Gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me
[Verse 3]
Way down South they had a jubilee, the jokey folks they had a jamboree
They’re drinking home brew from a water cup, the folks dancing there are all shook up
And started playing that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it
It’s got a back beat, you can’t lose it, any old time you use it
Gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me
[Verse 4]
Don’t care to hear them play a tango and In The Mood they take a mambo
It’s way too early for a congo so keep a rocking that piano
That’s why I go for that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it
It’s got a back beat, you can’t lose it, any old time you use it
Gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me
