Lyrics

Let's rock and roll now
(Second line, second line)
Let's rock and roll now
(It's always time for the second line)
Let's rock and roll now
(Second line, second line)
Let's rock and roll now
(It's always time for a second line)
We're each a tiny part
In our artery of art
And New Orleans is the heart
And your body's always known
There's a rhythm it calls home
Fundamental as your bones
New productions never hide this beat
Always right inside
Inviting you to join the ride
So let the chips fall where they may
Let your shoulders dip and sway
I bet your hips can find the way
Let's rock and roll now
(Second line, second line)
Let's rock and roll now
(It's always time for the second line)
Let's rock and roll now
(Second line, second line)
Let's rock and roll now
(It's always time for a second line)
It's a feeling, it's a groove
A dance with nothing else to prove
Comes from people on the move
So much blood in Congo Square
But also music in the air
That's a gift beyond compare
Bamboula, clave, Bo Diddley beat
It's all the rhythm of the street
Wakes us up and moves our feet
So it's worth another song
And another all night long
Keep the drums out beating strong
Let's rock and roll now
(Second line, second line)
Let's rock and roll now
(It's always time for the second line)
Let's rock and roll now
(Second line, second line)
Let's rock and roll now
(It's always time for the second line)
We're each a tiny part
In our artery of art
And New Orleans is the heart
