Lyrics What Did They Do Before Rock and Roll - Bonus Track - Shelley Fabares , Paul Petersen
Say,
Dad
(Mmm,
yes
kids)
We'd
like
to
have
a
heart-to-heart
talk
(Oh-oh,
have
you
spoken
to
your
mother
yet?)
No,
Dad,
we
wanna
ask
you
(Well,
I
guess
you're
both
old
enough)
What
we
wanna
know
is
What
did
they
do
before
rock
'n'
roll?
(ah-ha)
How'd
they
ever
make
it
Bless
my
soul
All
day
long
they
had
to
listen
to
(ah-ha)
(My
time
is
your
time)
What
did
they
do
before
Elvis
Pee
(ah-ha)
Fabian
and
Avalon
and
Brenda
Lee?
All
they
heard
on
the
radio
was
(May
the
blue
of
the
light,
make
the
buh-buh-buh-boom)
I
found
some
ancient
records
(ah-doo-wah)
From
nineteen-forty-five
(ah-doo-wah)
I
put
a
couple
on
the
phonograph
(laughed)
Laughed
ha-ha-ha-ha
ha-ha
Oh
well,
I
thought
I'd
die
Now,
let
me
tell
you,
Dad
It
was
an
awful
sound
To
hear
what
twenty-seven
cats
Were
puttin'
down
I
couldn't
believe
my
ears
It
was
a
shock
to
me
'Cause
all
that
they
were
playin'
Was
the
melody
They
had
a
thing
called
swing
They
didn't
have
no
beat
That
rikki-tikki
music
never
move
my
feet
And
then
I
played
your
records
Strangest
thing
I
heard
I
know
you'll
think
I'm
goofy
But
I'm
pretty
swerve
They
didn't
twang
guitars
I
meant
like
it
was
sad
And
tell
me
What's
a
Hugo
Winterhalter,
Dad?
Oh
well,
I
felt
so
poor
For
those
old
time
souls
(ah-ha)
They
never
had
the
benefit
Of
rock
'n'
roll
All
they
heard
on
the
radio
was
(ah-ha)
(Doo-fal-dee-ooh,
boop-boop-pee-doo,
ooh)
Oh,
no!
