(Berry)



Just let me hear some of that 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



I've got no kick against modern jazz

Unless they try to play it too darn fast


And lose the beauty of the melody


Until they sound just like a symphony



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 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



I took my loved one over across the tracks

So she can hear my man awail a sax


I must admit they have a rocking band


Man, they were blowing like a hurricane



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 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



Way down South they had a jubilee

The jokey folks they had a jamboree


They're drinking home brew from a water cup


The folks dancing there are all shook up



And started playing that that rock and roll music

Any old time you use 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



Don't care to hear them play a tango

And In The Mood they take a mambo

It's way to early for a congo


So keep a rocking that piano


That's why I go for that that rock and roll music


Any old time you use it

It's got a back beat, you can't lose it

Any old time you use it

Gotta be rock and roll music


If you wanna dance with me

If you wanna dance with me
