Sitting here wondering
What it's all about
This rock and roll music
That makes you shout
You tune in on Bandstand
They're jumping like mad
And the dancing they're doing
It don't look bad
[CHORUS]
You get that itchy twitchy feeling
(Itchy twitchy feeling)
You start rocking and a reeling
(Rocking and a reeling)
Soon your arms and legs start flapping
Like a hound dog mouth a yapping
You're rocking and rolling
You don't understand
But it sure feels nice
You thought you might try it
'Bout once or twice
You started with that dance
They call the stroll
But you felt much better
Doing rock and roll
[Repeat CHORUS]
You come in the house
With your hair on end
Nobody had to ask you
Where you've been
You come in the house
You're still jumping like mad
I've seen a lot of people with it
But you've got it bad
[Repeat CHORUS]
I don't understand it
Why you don't grow up
Must be something 'bout this music
That I don't know
I went to a hop
And it didn't take long
I got the feeling
Something was going wrong
[Repeat CHORUS]
Soon your arms and legs start flapping
Like a hound dog mouth a yapping
You're rocking and rolling
Soon your arms and legs start flapping
Like a hound dog mouth a yapping
You're rocking and rolling
