E7
Just let me hear some of that...
Chorus:
A7
Rock and roll music
A7
Any old way you choose it
D7
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
A7
Any old time you use it
E7
It's gotta be rock and roll music
A7
If you wanna dance with me
E7 A7
If you wanna dance with me
Verse 1:
A7 E7
I've got no kick against modern jazz
A7
Unless you try to play it too darn fast
D7
And change the beauty of the melody
E7
Until it sounds just like a symphony
A7
That's why I go for that...
(Chorus)
Verse 2:
A7 E7
I took my loved one over 'cross the tracks
A7
So she can hear my man a-wail a sax
D7
I must admit they have a rockin' band
E7
Man, they were blowin' like a hurrican'
A7
That's why I go for that...
(Chorus)
Verse 3:
E7
'Way down south they gave a jubilee
A7
The Jokey folks, they had a jamboree
D7
They're drinkin' home brew from a wooden cup
E7
The folks dancin' got all shook up
A7
And started playin' that...
(Chorus)
Verse 4:
E7
Don't care to hear 'em play a tango
A7
I'm in the mood to take a mambo
D7
It's way too early for a congo
E7
So keep a rockin' that piano
A7
That's why i go for that...
(Chorus)
