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
Well it's gotta be rock and roll music
If you want to dance with me
If you want to dance with me
I got no kick against modern jazz
Unless they try to play it too darn fast
And wreck the beauty of the melody
Until it 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 time you use it
Well it's gotta be rock and roll music
If you want to dance with me
If you want to dance with me
I took my lovely one over across the tracks
So she can see my man a-wailin sax
I must admit they got that rockin band
Boy they was blowin 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
Well it's gotta be rock and roll music
If you want to dance with me
If you want to dance with me
Way down South they had a jubilee
Them country folks they had a jamboree
They drinkin homebrew from that wooden cup
The folks was dancin they got all shook up
Whoo started playin 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
Well it's gotta be rock and roll music
If you want to dance with me
If you want to dance with me
Don't care to hear them play a tango
Ain't in the mood to take no mambo
It's way too early for that congo
Best keep a-rockin that piano
I can 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
Well it's gotta be rock and roll music
If you want to dance with me
If you want to dance with me
Any old way you choose it
It's got a back beat you can't lose it
Any old time you use it
Well it's gotta be rock and roll music
If you want to dance with me
If you want to dance with me
I got no kick against modern jazz
Unless they try to play it too darn fast
And wreck the beauty of the melody
Until it 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 time you use it
Well it's gotta be rock and roll music
If you want to dance with me
If you want to dance with me
I took my lovely one over across the tracks
So she can see my man a-wailin sax
I must admit they got that rockin band
Boy they was blowin 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
Well it's gotta be rock and roll music
