R-O-C-K - Bill Haley, His Comets, The Comets

Making R from an eight,

To the bar eighty-eight,

O from the tone of the sax syncopated,

C from the key of a six-string guitar,

K from the kick of a rim shot, baby.

That’s how they played it,

That’s how they made it,

R-O-C-K, rock.

I know my A’s and my B’s and my C’s,

P’s and my Q’s and my X, Y, Z’s,

Know how to lose,

All the blue, blue, blues,

Jump in a pair of my dancing shoes.

Take with my baby,

Rock with my baby,

R-O-C-K, rock.

Oh, Strauss discovered waltzes,

A handy man found the blues,

And here they came along,

With their rocking song,

Crazy, man, crazy, crazy news.

R is all the rock, hear the band,

It’s a' moving,

O more than that, it’s a go-go grooving,

C what I mean, it’s a hot top action,

K like a kiss it’s a cool attraction.

Who even get you,

I’m gonna bet you,

R-O-C-K, rock.

R-O-C-K, rock
