Jailhouse Rock

The warden threw a party in the county jail

The priosn band was there they began to wail

The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing

You should've heard those knocked out jailbirds sing.

Let's rock everybody, let's rock

Everybody in the wholel cell block was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock.

Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone

Little Joe was blowing on the slide tronbone

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 wholel cell block was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock.

No. 47 said to No. 3

You're sure 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 wholel cell block was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock.

The sad sack was a sittin' on a block of stone

Way over in the corner weeping all alone

The warden said, hey buddy, don't you be no square

Ain't find a partner use a wooden chair.

Let's rock everybody let's rock

Everybody in the wholel cell block was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock.

Shifty Henry said to bugs for heaven's sake

No one's looking now's our chance to make a break

Bugsy turned to shifty and he said nix nix

I wanna stick around a while and get my kicks.

Let's rock everybody let's rock

Everybody in the wholel cell block was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock...
