Lyrics

Let me hear some more of that
Rock n roll music
It's got a back beat you can't lose it
Any old way you choose it
Any old time you use it
It's got to be rock n roll music
If you wanna dance with me

I have 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 why I go for that
Rock n 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 got to be rock n roll music
If you wanna dance with me

I took my loved one over cross the tracks
So I can hear my man a wailin' sax
You admit they have a rockin' band
Man, they were goin' like a hurricane

Rock n roll music
With the back beat you can't lose it
Any old way you choose it
Any old time you use it

It's got to be rock n roll music
If you wanna dance with me

Chords

A7
Just let me hear some of that...
 
[Chorus]
D
Rock and roll music
Any old way you choose it
           G
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
D
Any old time you use it
     A7
It's gotta be rock and roll music
                        D
If you wanna dance with me
A7                      D
If you wanna dance with me
 
[Verse 1]
                       A
I have no kick against modern jazz
A7                          D
  Unless you try to play it too darn fast
                       G
I lose the beauty of a melody
                            A7
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]

Lyrics

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 on music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me

I have no kick against modern jazz
Unless they try to play it too darn fast
And change the beauty of the melody
Until they sound just like a symphony

That's why I go for 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 want to dance with me
If you want to dance with me

I took my loved one over cross the tracks
So she can hear my man a wailin' sax
I must admit they have a rockin' band
Man, they were goin' like a hurricane

That's why I go for 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 gave a jubilee,
The jokey folks they had a jamboree;
They're drinkin' homebrew from a water cup,
The folks dancin' got all shook up

And started playin' 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

Don't care to hear 'em play a tango
I'm in the mood to dig a mambo
It's way to early for a congo
So keep a rockin' that piano

So I can 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
