Rock N Roll
Rock n Roll
Rock n roll
Do the stroll
The sounds of the 50’s and 60’s
Elvis Presley singing about “Hound Dog”
Girls screaming at his feet,
Elvis “The King”
Rock n roll
Has that beat
Frankie Avalon singing “Venus”
Bobby Rydell, you can’t “Forget Him”,
Fabian, well we know what he wants
“Turn Me Loose”
Rock n roll
Jerry Lee Lewis has “Great Balls of Fire”
He’s hitting those piano keys with his shoes
Then there’s the man from New Orleans
Singing about “Blueberry Hill”
That’s the one and only Fats Domino
Then the Beattles come on the scene
The British Invasion
“I Want to Hold Your Hand”
The BeeGees arrive from Australia
“The Lights are On in Massachusetts”
The Dave Clark Five and the Herman Hermits
The Rolling Stones make a big hit
That’s what rock n roll is
That’s the sound, that’s the beat
It gets you on your feet
That’s Rock n Roll.
