Jailhouse Rock - Joan Idol

everybody let’s rock

Everybody in the whole cell block

was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

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, bangg

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

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 weepin’ 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

Everybody in the whole cell block

Everybody in the whole cell block

Everybody in the whole cell block

Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock
