[Intro]
A7
N.C.
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]
N.C. A7 I have no kick against modern jazz D Unless they try to play it too darn fast G And change the beauty of the melody A7 Until it sounds just like a symphony
N.C.
That's why I go for 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 Gotta be rock roll music D If you wanna dance with me A7 D If you wanna dance with me
[Verse 2]
N.C. A7 I took my loved one over 'cross the tracks D So she could hear my man a-wailin' sax G I must admit they had a rockin' band A7 Man, they were blowin' like a hurrican'
N.C.
That's why I go for 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 Gotta be rock roll music D If you wanna dance with me A7 D If you wanna dance with me
[Verse 3]
N.C. A7 Way down south they gave a jubilee D Them Georgia folks, they had a jamboree G They're drinkin' home brew from a wooden cup A7 The folks dancin' got all shook up
N.C.
And started playin' 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 Gotta be rock roll music D If you wanna dance with me A7 D If you wanna dance with me
[Verse 4]
N.C. A7 Don't care to hear 'em play a tango D I'm in no mood to take a mambo G It's way too early for the congo A7 So keep a-rockin' that piano
N.C.
So I can 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 Gotta be rock roll music D If you wanna dance with me A7 D If you wanna dance with me
[Outro]
D6
