Jailhouse Rock

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 them knocked out jailbirds sing.
Let's rock, everybody, let's rock,
Everybody in 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 in the whole cell block,
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock .

Number forty-seven said to number three,
You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see.
I sure would be delighted with your company,
Come on and do the Jailhouse Rock with me.
Let's rock, everybody, let's rock,.
Everybody in the whole cell block,
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock.

Sad sack was sittin' on a block of stone,
Way over in 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 in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock

Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
