INTRO:E7-break
CHORUS:
[Just let me hear some of]
[That's why I go for ] that
[I started playing ]
A7
rock 'n' roll music
[way you choose it,]
Any old
[time you use it ]
D(7)
It's got a back-beat you can't lose it
A(7)
Any old time you use it
E7
[It's gotta be]
rock 'n' roll music
[All I got is ]
E7 A7
If you want to dance with me,
E7 A break
If you want to dance with me,
E7
I get no kick against modern jazz
A(7)
Unless they try to play it too
darn fast,
D(7)
I lose the beauty of the melody
E7
Until it sounds just like a symphony
(REPEAT CHORUS)
I took my loved one over
E7
'cross the tracks,
While she can hear my man
A(7)
a-wailing band
I must admit that they had
D(7)
a rocking band.
so, they were blowing like
E7
a hurricance.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
We go down South they had
E7
a jubilee,
A(7)
Georgia folks they had jamboree,
They're drinking home-brew from
D(7)
a wooden cup.
E7
He folks a-dancing there were all
shook up.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
I don't care to hear them play
E7
a tango,
A(7)
I'm in no mood to take a mambo;
D(7)
It's a way too early for a congo
E7
to keep a-rocking that piano.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
