Lyrics Chuck Berry

Chuck Berry

Sweet Little Rock and Roller

She'd 9 years old and sweet as she can be

All dressed up like a downtown Christmas tree

Dancin' and hummin' a rock-roll melody

She's the daughter of a well-respected man

Who taught her how to judge and understand

Since she became a rock-roll music fan

Sweet little rock and roller, sweet little rock and roller

Her daddy don't have to scold her, her mother can't hardly hold her

She never gets any older, sweet little rock and roller

(instrumental)

Should've seen her eyes when the band began to play

And the famous singers sang and barred away

When the stars performed, she screamed and yelled "Hooray!"

Ten thousand eyes were watching them leave the floor

Five thousand tongues were screaming "More! More!"

About 1500 waitin' outside the door

(repeat and fade):

Sweet little rock and roller
