Jailhouse Rock

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The warden threw a party in the county jail The prison band was there, they began to wail Judge started jumping, the band began to sway You shoulda heard those knocked out jailbirds sing [Chorus] Let's rock, everybody, let's rock Everybody in the whole cell block Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock [Verse 2] Shifty Henry said to Bugs, "For Heaven's sakes No one's looking, now's our chance to make a break" Bugsy looked at Henry and he said, "Nix nix I wanna stick around a while, gonna get my kicks." [Chorus] Let's rock, everybody, let's rock Everybody in the whole cell block Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock [Guitar solo] [Verse 3] Now was sack sitting on top of a load Sitting in the corner on a block of stone The warden said, "Hey, buddy, don't you be no square You can't find a partner, use a wooden chair" [Chorus] Let's rock, everybody, let's rock Everybody in the whole cell block Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock [Verse 4] Spider Murphy played his tenor saxophone Little Joe was blowing on his slide trombone The drummer rode the rhythm went crash, boom, bang The whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang [Chorus] Let's rock, everybody, let's rock Everybody in the whole cell block Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock .... baby....help me out ....going to break out ....
