1. The warden threw a party in the county jail.
The prison band was there and they began to wail.
The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing.
You should've heard those knocked out jailbirds sing.
Let's rock, everybody, let's rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock.
2. One, two, three o'clock, four o'clock, rock,
Five, six, seven o'clock, eight o'clock, rock,
Nine, ten, eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock, rock,
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight.
Put your glad rags on and join me, hon,
We'll have some fun when the clock strikes one,
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight,
We're gonna rock, rock, rock, 'til broad daylight.
We're gonna rock, gonna rock, around the clock tonight.
3.
Cos she's so fine, she's so fine, she's so fine
She's so fine, you know I wish she was mine
4. Deep down in louisiana close to new orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy named johnny be good
Who never ever learned to read or write so well
But he could play the guitar just like ringin a bell
Chorus
Go, go,
go johnny go go
go johnny go go
go johnny go go
go johnny go go,
Johnny be good
5. You know, I can be found,
Sitting home all alone,
If you can't come around,
At least please telephone.
Don't be cruel to a heart thats true.
Baby, if I made you mad
For something I might have said,
Please, let's forget the past,
The future looks bright ahead.
Dont be cruel to a heart thats true.
I don't want no other love,
Baby it's still you I'm thinking of.
6. in the summertime when the weather's high,
you can stretch right up and touch the sky,
when the weather's fine,
you got women, you got women on your mind.
Have a drink, have a drive,
go out and see what you can find.
If her daddy's rich, take her out for a meal.
If her daddy's poor, just do as you feel.
Speed along the land,
you can ton, on the turn of twentyfive.
When the sun goes down, you can make it,
make it good in a lay-by.
7. Can't buy me love, oh, love, oh
Can't buy me love, oh
I'll buy you a diamond ring, my friend
If it makes you feel all right
I'll get you anything my friend
If it makes you feel all right
'Cause I don't care too much for money
For money can't buy me love
Can't buy me love, oh, love, oh
Can't buy me love, oh |
