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 those 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,
