lyrics: [Chorus]
  Just let me hear some of that rock and roll music
  Any old way you choose it
  It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
  Any old time you use it
  It's got to be rock and roll music
  If you want to dance with me
  If you want to dance with me
  
  [Verse 1]
  I've got no kick against modern jazz
  Unless they try to play it too darn fast
  And lose the beauty of the melody
  Until they sound just like a symphony
  
  [Chorus]
  That's why I go for that that rock and roll music
  Any old way you choose it
  It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
  Any old time you use it
  It's got to be rock and roll music
  If you want to dance with me
  If you want to dance with me
  
  [Verse 2]
  I took my loved one over across the tracks
  So she can hear my man a wailin' sax
  I must admit they have a rocking band
  Man, they were blowing like a hurricane
  
  [Chorus]
  That's why I go for that rock and roll music
  Any old way you choose it
  It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
  Any old time you use it
  It's got to be rock and roll music
  If you want to dance with me
  If you want to dance with me
  
  [Verse 3]
  Way down South they had a jubilee
  Them Georgia folks they had a jamboree
  They're drinking home brew from a wooden cup
  The folks dancing there are all shook up
  
  [Chorus]
  And started playing that rock and roll music
  Any old time you use it
  It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
  Any old time you use it
  Got to be rock and roll music
  If you want to dance with me
  If you want to dance with me
  
  [Verse 4]
  Don't care to hear them play a tango
  And in the mood they take a mambo
  It's way to early for a congo
  So keep a rocking that piano
  
  [Chorus]
  That's why I go for that rock and roll music
  Any old time you use it
  It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
  Any old time you use it
  Oh, you got rock 'n roll music
  If you want to dance with me
  If you want to dance with me
