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.
Gotta be rock and roll music,
If you wanna dance with me,
If you wanna dance with me.

I 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 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.
Gotta be rock and roll music,
If you wanna dance with me,
If you wanna dance with me.

I took my loved one over cross the tracks,
I must admit they had awailin' sax,
I must admit they had a rockin' band,
Man, they were blowin' like a hurrican'.

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.
Gotta be rock and roll music,
If you wanna dance with me,
If you wanna dance with me.
