Lyrics

R
O
C
K
R-O-C-K, Rock
Take an R from an eight to the bar eighty-eight
O from the tone of the sax syncopated
C from the key of the six-string guitar
K from the kick of the rim shot beater
That's how they made it, that's how they played it, R-O-C-K, rock
I know my A's, and my B's, and my C's
P's and my Q's and my X, Y, ZZ's
Know, how to lose all the blue, blue, bluesies
Jump in a pair of my dancing shoesies
Take with my baby, rock with my baby, R-O-C-K, rock
Oh, Strauss discovered waltzes
The handy man found the blues
And Haley came along with the rocking song
Crazy man, crazy, crazy news
R is all the rock, here's the band, it's a moving
O more an act, it's a go, go, grooving
C what I mean is a heart attack action
K like a kiss is a cool attraction
Ooh it'll getcha, I'm gonna betcha, R-O-C-K, rock
R

K
R-O-C-K, rock
Oh, Strauss discovered waltzes
The Handy man found the blues
And Haley came along with the rocking song
Crazy man, crazy, crazy news
R is all the rock, here's the band, it's a moving
O more an act, it's a go, go, grooving
C what I mean is a heart attack action
K like a kiss is a cool attraction
Ooh it'll getcha, I'm gonna betcha, R-O-C-K, rock
