Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm gonna write a little letter, gonna mail it to my local DJ
It's a rocking little record I want my jockey to play
Oh, roll over Beethoven, gotta hear it again today
[Verse 2]
Well you know my temperature's rising and my jukebox is blowing a fuse
My heart's beating rhythm and my soul keep a-singing the blues
Roll over Beethoven
Tell Tchaikovsky the news
[Verse 3]
Early in the morning, I done given you my warning
He stepped on my blue suede shoes
Hey diddle diddle, I'm finna play my fiddle
Ain't got nothing to lose
Roll over Beethoven
Tell Tchaikovsky the news
[Verse 4]
Oh, roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll it over Beethoven
Tell Tchaikovsky the news, the news
[Verse 5]
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Oh, roll over Beethoven, yeah
Roll over Beethoven, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 6]
Roll over Beethoven
And dig these rhythm and blues
Written by: Chuck Berry
