Jailhouse Rock

The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there and they began to wail
The joint was jumpin' and the place began to swing
You shoulda heard those knocked out jailbirds sing

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody on the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock

Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone
Little Joe was blowin' on the slide trombone
The drummer boy from Illinois went crash boom bang
The whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody on the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock

Well, number forty-seven said to number three
"You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see
I'd sure be delighted with your company
Come on and do the Jailhouse Rock with me"

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody on the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock

Sad Sack was a sittin' on a block of stone
Rollin' around the corner, weepin' all alone
The warden said, "Hey, buddy, don't you be no square
If you can't find a partner use a wooden chair"

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody on the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock

They was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
They was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
They was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
They was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Everybody on the whole cell block
They was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
They was dancin', dancin', dancin', dancin'
Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
They was dancin', dancin', dancin', dancin'
Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Everybody on the whole cell block
They was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
They was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
They was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
They was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Everybody on the whole cell block
They was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
