Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Ooh

[Verse 2]

Hey, did you rock 'n' roll? Rock on, ooh, my soul

Hey, did you boogie too, did you?

Hey, shout, "Summertime blues"

Jump up and down in your blue suede shoes

Hey, did you rock 'n' roll? Rock on

[Verse 3]

And where do we go from here?

Which is a way that's clear?

[Verse 4]

Still lookin' for that blue jean, baby queen

Prettiest girl I ever seen

See her shake on the movie screen, Jimmy Dean (James Dean)

[Verse 5]

And where do we go from here?

Which is a way that's clear?

[Verse 6]

Still lookin' for that blue jean, baby queen

Prettiest girl I ever seen

See her shake on the movie screen, Jimmy Dean

Jimmy Dean

[Verse 7]

Rock on

Rock on

Rock on (Hey, did you rock 'n' roll?)

Rock on

Rock on (Hey, did you rock 'n' roll?)

Rock on

[Verse 8]

Rock on (Hey, did you rock 'n' roll?) (Hey)

Rock on

Rock on (Hey, did you rock 'n' roll?) (Hey)

Rock on

Rock on (Hey, did you rock 'n' roll?) (Hey)

Rock on

Rock on (Hey, did you rock 'n' roll?) (Hey)

Rock on

[Verse 9]

Rock on (Hey, did you rock 'n' roll?) (Hey)

Rock on

Rock on (Hey, did you rock 'n' roll?) (Hey)

Rock on
