Standard (EADGBE)
Well, sometimes I will, then again, I think I won't.
Whoa, sometimes I will, then again, I think I won't.
Sometimes I do, then again, I think I don't.
Ah, well, I looked at my watch and it was nine twenty-one,
we're at a rock and roll dance having nothing but fun.
Chorus
And we rolled, oh, reelin' and a-rockin'.
We was reeling and a-rocking, rolling til the break of dawn.
Ah well, I looked at my watch and it was nine thirty-two.
There's nothing I'd rather do than dance with you.
Chorus
And we rolled, oh, reelin' and a-rockin'.
We was reeling and a-rocking, rolling til the break of dawn.
Ah well, I looked at my watch and it was nine forty-three.
And at the time I spent she spent with me.
Chorus
And we rolled, oh, reelin' and a-rockin'.
We was reeling and a-rocking, rolling til the break of dawn.
Ah well, I looked at my watch and it was nine fifty-four.
I said, dance, ballerina girl, go, go, go.
Chorus
And we rolled, oh, reelin' and a-rockin'.
We was reeling and a-rocking, rolling til the break of dawn.
Ah, well, I looked at my watch and it was ten twenty-six.
I gotta keep on dancing til I get my kicks.
Chorus
And we rolled, oh, reelin' and a-rockin'.
We was reeling and a-rocking, rolling til the break of dawn.
Ah, well, I looked at my watch and it was ten o-five.
And, man, I didn't know if I was dead or alive.
Chorus
And we rolled, oh, reelin' and a-rockin'.
We was reeling and a-rocking, rolling til the break of dawn.
I looked at my watch and it was ten twenty-nine.
I had to hold her hand, she was still holding mine.
Chorus
And we rolled, oh, reelin' and a-rockin'.
We was reeling and a-rocking, rolling til the break of dawn.
I looked at my watch, it took me by surprise.
I was dancing with a woman that was twice my size.
Chorus
And we rolled, oh, reelin' and a-rockin'.
We was reeling and a-rocking, rolling til the break of dawn.
I looked at my watch and it was time to go.
The band leader said, we ain't playing no more.
Chorus
And we rolled, oh, reelin' and a-rockin'.
We was reeling and a-rocking, rolling til the break of dawn.
