Lyrics That's Rock ´n´ Roll - Johnny Rivers

Well all the cats get together to have a good time
You bring your girl and I'll bring mine
We'll all get together and go to the hop
And all the cats start shakin' and doin' the bop
We'll do the walk, the fish, the chick and the stroll
Mama, that's rock and roll (that's rock and roll)

Well on Saturday night you've got your homework done
Your mind's made up, you're gonna have some fun
You call your girl, you're gonna meet her at 9
Odds are a cinch you're gonna have a good time
You just can't help it it's in your soul
Mama, that's rock and roll (that's rock and roll)

Well you keep reelin' and rockin' cause you're feelin' alright
Then when you stop you know you rock all night
You know it's alright you're not hurtin' no one
Just getting your kicks, just having some fun

Some people don't like it because they don't understand
They don't know what it's like to hear a rockin' band
They forgot about the time when they were young
About the things they did and the songs they sung
Now we got something both young and old
Mama, that's rock and roll (that's rock and roll)

Oh, rock it now, yeah

Oh, let's get it now...

Well you keep reelin' and rockin' cause you're feelin' alright
Then when you stop you know you go all night
You know it's alright you're not hurtin' no one
Just getting your kicks, just having some fun

Some people don't like it because they don't understand
They don't know what it's like to hear a rockin' band
They forgot about the time when they were young
About the things they did and the songs they sung
Now we got something both young and old
Mama, that's rock and roll
