The Beatles Song book

Rock and roll music

    Just let me hear some of that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it. It's got a back beat, you can't lose it. Any old time you use it. It's gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me, if you wanna dance with me.

   I've got no kick against modern jazz, unless they try to play it too darn fast. And lose the beauty of the melody, until they sound just like a symphony.

   That's why I go for that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it. It's got a back beat, you can't lose it. Any old time you use it. It's gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me, if you wanna dance with me.

   I took my loved one over across the tracks, so she can hear my man awail a sax. I must admit they have a rocking band. Man, they were blowing like a hurricane.

   That's why I go for that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it. It's got a back beat, you can't lose it. Any old time you use it. It's gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me, if you wanna dance with me.

   Way down south they had a jubilee, the jokey folks they had a jamboree. They're drinking home brew from a water cup, the folks dancing there are all shook up.

   And started playing that rock and roll music, any old time you use it. It's got a back beat, you can't lose it. Any old time you use it. It's gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me, if you wanna dance with me.

   Don't care to hear them play a tango, and the mood they take a mambo. It's way too early for the congo, so keep a rocking that piano.

   That's why I go for that rock and roll music, any old time you use it. It's got a back beat, you can't lose it. Any old time you use it. It's gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me, if you wanna dance withe me.
