Jeff Beck Group - Jailhouse Rock lyrics

The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there
And they began to wail
The band began to jumping
They began to swing
You should have heard the
Knockdown jailbird sing

Let's rock, everybody let's rock
Oh everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the jailhouse rock

Number 47 said to number three
You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see
I sure would be delighted with your company
So come and do the jailhouse rock with me

Let's rock, have a party, let's rock
Oh everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the jailhouse rock, yeah!

Spider Murphy played on the tenor saxophone
Little Joe was blowin' on a slide trombone
Drummer boy from Illinois was
Crash-a bam boomin'
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

Listen dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the jailhouse rock, yeah!
Everybody in the whole cell block
Dancing to the jailhouse rock

C'mon

Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the jailhouse
