Rock and Roll Music

Just let me hear some of that rock'n'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-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'n'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-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 could her my man a-whalin'sax

I must admit they have a rockin'band

Man they were goin'like a hurricane

That's why I go for that rock'n'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-roll music

If you wanna dance with me

If you wanna dance with me

Way down South they gave a jubilee

Them country folks they had a jamboree

They're drinkin'home-brew from a wooden cup

The folks dancin'got all shook up

And started playin'that rock'n'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-roll music

If you wanna dance with me

If you wanna dance with me

Don't care to hear'em play the tango

I'm in no 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'n'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-roll music

If you wanna dance with me

If you wanna dance with me
