Standard (EADGBE)
Just let me hear some of that...
Chorus
Rock and roll music
Any old way you choose it
It's got a back beat, 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
Verse 1
I have no kick against modern jazz
Unless you try to play it too darn fast
I lose the beauty of a melody
Until it sounds just like a symphony
That's why I go for that...
(chorus)
Verse 2
I took my love on over 'cross the tracks
So she could hear a man a-wailin' sax
I must admit they had a rockin' band
And they were blowin' like a hurrican'
That's why I go for that...
(chorus)
Verse 3
Way down south they gave a jubilee
And Georgia 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...
(chorus)
Verse 4
Don't get to hear 'em play a tango
I'm in no mood to take a mambo
It's way too early for the congo
So keep on rockin' that piano
So I can hear some of that...
(chorus)
