Once upon a time not so very long ago

There wasn't such a thing as a rock'n roll show

You had to sit at home and listen to the radio



Then came a man with a rockin'guitar

Found himself a beat and he played it near and far

Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll



Again again again again, again again again again

Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again

Again again again again, again again again again

Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again



He travelled round the world in a rock-n-roll band

He stood there like a giant with a guitar in his hand

Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll



Nobody cared about the clothes he would wear

Nobody cared about the colour of his hair

Everybody came to see and let the good times roll



Again again again again, again again again again

Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again

Again again again again, again again again again

Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again



Now we've got the rhythm in us now we've got the rock

Time didn't matter never living by the clock

Everybody came to hear him playing his rock-n-roll



Then came a line when the music didn't rhyme

He couldn't find the rhythm cos he couldn't find the time

But still the people came to listen to the good times roll



Again again again again, again again again again

Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again

Again again again again, again again again again

Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again



Again again again again, again again again again

Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again

Again again again again, again again again again

Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again

Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again
