Rock And Roll Music

Just let me hear some of that rock and roll music

Any old way you choose it

It's got a backbeat, you can't lose it

Any old 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 have 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 old way you choose it

It's got a backbeat, you can't lose it

Any old 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 loved one over 'cross the tracks

So she can hear my man a-wailin' sax

I must admit they have a rockin' band

Man, they were goin' like a hurricane

That's why I go for that rock and roll music

Any old way you choose it

It's got a backbeat, you can't lose it

Any old 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

The jokey folks, they had a jamboree

They're drinkin' homebrew from a water cup

The folks dancin' got all shook up

And started playin' that rock and roll music

Any old way you choose it

It's got a backbeat, you can't lose it

Any old 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

I'm in the mood to dig a mambo

It's way too early for the congo

So keep a rockin' that piano

So I can hear some of that rock and roll music

Any old way you choose it

It's got a backbeat, you can't lose it

Any old time you use it

It's gotta be rock and roll music

If you wanna dance with me

If you wanna dance with me
