Rock It for Me
Thank you
I heard it came to town
A new kind of rhythm
Spread around
Sort of set you sizzlin'
Now I'm all through with symphonies
Oh, rock it for me
Every night
You'll see all the nifties
Plenty tight
Swingin' down the '50s
Now they're all through with symphonies
Oh, rock it for me
It's true that once upon a time
The opera was the thing
But today the rage is rhythm and rhyme
So won't you satisfy my soul with the rock and roll?
You can't be tame while the band is playin'
It ain't no shame to keep your body swayin'
They beat it out in the minor key
Oh, rock it for me
Can't you hear loose singin'?
Oh, that Lou is swingin'
Say Herbie's rockin'
And 'cause it's sucking
So send me lightly, politely and brightly and slightly
Oh, rock it for me
Yes, it's true that once upon a time
The opera was the thing
But today the rage is rhythm and rhyme
So won't you satisfy my soul with the rock and roll?
You can't be tame while the band is playin'
It ain't no shame to keep your body swayin'
They beat it out in the minor key
Oh-oh, rock it
Oh-oh, rock it
Oh-oh, rock it
Oh-oh, rock it
Oh-oh, rock it
Say, won't you rock it for me?
Thank you
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen
I heard it came to town
A new kind of rhythm
Spread around
Sort of set you sizzlin'
Now I'm all through with symphonies
Oh, rock it for me
Every night
You'll see all the nifties
Plenty tight
Swingin' down the '50s
Now they're all through with symphonies
Oh, rock it for me
It's true that once upon a time
The opera was the thing
But today the rage is rhythm and rhyme
So won't you satisfy my soul with the rock and roll?
You can't be tame while the band is playin'
It ain't no shame to keep your body swayin'
They beat it out in the minor key
Oh, rock it for me
Can't you hear loose singin'?
Oh, that Lou is swingin'
Say Herbie's rockin'
And 'cause it's sucking
So send me lightly, politely and brightly and slightly
Oh, rock it for me
Yes, it's true that once upon a time
The opera was the thing
But today the rage is rhythm and rhyme
So won't you satisfy my soul with the rock and roll?
You can't be tame while the band is playin'
It ain't no shame to keep your body swayin'
They beat it out in the minor key
Oh-oh, rock it
Oh-oh, rock it
Oh-oh, rock it
Oh-oh, rock it
Oh-oh, rock it
Say, won't you rock it for me?
Thank you
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen
