Jailhouse Rock

Jerry Leiber, Mike Stoller

The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there and
They began to wail
The band was jumping and the
Joint began to swing
You should've heard those knocked
Out jailbirds sing

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone
Little Joe was blowing on the slide trombone
The drummer boy from Illinois
Went crash, boom, bang
The whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Number forty-seven said to number three
"You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see
I sure would be delighted with your company"
She said "come on and do
The Jailhouse Rock with me"

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

The sad sack was a sitting
On a block of stone
Way over in the corner weeping all alone
The warden said, "Hey, buddy
Don't you be no square
If you can't find a partner
Use a wooden chair"

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Shifty Henry said to Bugs
"For Heaven's sake no one's looking
Now's our chance to make a break"
Bugsy turned to Shifty and he said, "Nix nix
I want to stick around a
While and get my kicks"

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock
