Up in the mornin'and off to s chool
The teacher is teachin'the golden rule
American hist'ry and practical math
You're studyin'hard, hopin'to pa ss
Workin'your fingers right down to the b one
And the guy behind you won't leave you a lone
Ring ring, goes the bell
The cook in the lunchroom's ready to sell
You're lucky if you can find a seat
You're fortunate if you have time to eat
Back in the classroom, open your books
Bet the teacher don't know how mean she looks
Soon as 3 :00 rolls around
You finally lay your burden down
Close up your books, get out of your seat
Down the halls and into the street
Up through the corner and round the bend
Right to the juke joint you go in
Drop the coin right into the slot
You gotta hear somethin'that's really hot
With the one you love you're makin'rom ance
All day long you've been wantin'to d ance
Feelin'the music from head to t oe
Round and round and round you go
(Instrumental)
Hail, hail, rock 'n'r oll !
Deliver me from the days of old
Long live rock 'n'r oll
The beat of the drums loud and bold
Rock, rock, rock 'n'r oll
The feelin'is there, body and s oul
