Listen everybody let me tell you 'bout the rock 'n' roll

Feel that rhythm and it's really gonna thrill your soul

She said come along with me, to a land of make believe

She said rock 'n' roll is king



She loves that rock 'n' roll and she plays it all night long

That's all she ever tells me when I call her on the telephone

She says feel that jumpin' beat, and git up on your feet

She says rock 'n' roll is king



Chorus:

Oh let those guitars play

Play for me play for me

Oh let that song ring out

That's how it's meant to be



It rolls like a train that's comin' on down the track

She rolled over Beethoven and she gave Tchaikovsky back

She loves that drivin' beat, she goes dancin' on down the street

She said rock 'n' roll is king



Repeat Chorus:



When she comes around and I'm listenin' to the radio

She says you can't do that 'cause all I wanna do is rock 'n' roll

Now here I'm gonna stay where that music starts to play

She says rock 'n' roll is king
