Just let me hear some rock and roll mu-sic.
Any old way you choo-se it!
It's got a back beat, you can't loose it!
Any old time you use it.
It's got-ta be rock roll mu-sic.

I've got no kick a-gainst modern jazz.
Un-less they try to play it too darn fast.
And change the beau-ty of the me-lody.
Un-til they sound just like a sym-pho-ny.

That's why I go for that, that rock and roll music.
Any old way you choose it!
It's got a back beat, you can't loose it.

I took my loved one over 'cross the tracks.
So she can hear my man awail a sax.
I must admit they have a rockin' band,
Man, they were goin' like a hur-ri-can'!
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 lo-ose it.

Way down south they gave a ju-bilee.
The jokey folks they had a jam-boree.
They're drinkin' home brew from a water cup!
The folks dancin' got all sho-ok up!
And start-ed playin' that, that rock and roll mu-sic.
Any old way you cho-ose it.
It's got a back beat, you can't lo-ose it.
