"Rockin' The Night Away"

"Rockin' The Night Away"



Rockin' round the clock
C'mon shake a tail feather
Put on your dancing shoes
Shake your money maker

Rockin' the night away
Rockin' the night away
Rockin' the night, rockin' the night away

C'mon money honey and short fat fanny
Good Golly Miss Molly, Long Tall Sally
A whole lotta shakin', great balls of fire
Rock n' roll music, woo! Sapphire!

Rockin' the night away
I'm rocking the night away
I'm rockin' the night, rockin' the night away

Rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu
C'mon everybody and do the hoochie coo
A whole lotta woman for a sixty minute man
Don't bug me baby, yea I'm your man

Rockin' the night away
Rockin' the night away
I'm rockin' the night, rockin' the night away

C'mon money honey and short fat fanny
Good Golly Miss Molly and Long Tall Sally
Whole lotta shakin', great balls of fire
Rock n' roll music, woo! Sapphire!

Rockin' the night away
Rockin' the night away
Rockin' the night, rockin' the night away

Rockin' the night away

"Roll Over Beethoven"

"Roll Over Beethoven"



I'm gonna write a little letter
Gonna mail it to my local DJ
It's a rockin' rhythm record
I want my jockey to play
Roll Over Beethoven, I gotta hear it again today

You know, my temperature's risin'
And the jukebox blows a fuse
My heart's beatin' rhythm
And my soul keeps on singin' the blues
Roll Over Beethoven and tell Tschaikowsky the news

I got the rockin' pneumonia
I need a shot of rhythm and blues
I think I'm rollin' arthiritis
Sittin' down by the rhythm review
Roll Over Beethoven rockin' in two by two

Well, if you feel you like it
Go get your lover, then reel and rock it
Roll it over and move on up just
A trifle further and reel and rock it
Roll it over,
Roll Over Beethoven rockin' in two by two

Well, early in the mornin' I'm a-givin' you a warnin'
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Hey diddle diddle, I am playin' my fiddle
Ain't got nothin' to lose
Roll Over Beethoven and tell Tschaikowsky the news

You know she wiggles like a glow worm
Dance like a spinnin' top
She got a crazy partner,
Oughta see 'em reel and rock
Long as she got a dime the music will never stop

Roll Over Beethoven
Roll Over Beethoven
Roll Over Beethoven
Roll Over Beethoven
Roll Over Beethoven and dig these rhythm and blues

"Sapphire"

"Sapphire"



Saphire
What in the world is wrong with you
You didn't get home till half past 2
Sapphire
You're always kickin' up another fuss
pack your bags and catch a greyhound buss
Sapphire
How come you treat me like you do, do, do
I'm feelin' so bad I don't know what to do

Well you tole me you saw sick in bed
(Yeah) I checked up on your story
But you were with some other guy instead
Sapphire
I'm gonna find myself another chick
'Cause what you did was an awful trick
Sapphire
Why do you treat me like a newborn fool
You never do right by the golden rule
Sapphire
All you can do is ball the jack
But you better be gone when I get back

I said bye, bye, bye bye

"Schooldays (Anthem)"

"Schooldays (Anthem)"



Up in the mornin' and out to school
The teacher is teachin' the Golden Rule
American history and practical math
You study' em hard and hopin' to pass
Workin' your fingers right down to the bone
And the guy behind you won't leave you alone
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 you books
Gee but the teacher don't know
How mean she looks
Soon as three o'clock 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 to the corner and 'round the bend
Right to the juke joint you go in

Drop the coin right into the slot
You gotta hear something that's really hot
With the one you love you're makin' romance
All day long you been
Wantin' to dance
Feelin' the music from head to toe
'Round and 'round and 'round you go

Drop the coin right into the slot
You gotta hear something that's really hot
With the one you love you're makin' romance
All day long you been
Wantin' to dance
Feelin' the music from head to toe
'Round and 'round and 'round you go

Hail, hail rock'n'roll
Deliver me from the days of old
Long live rock'n'roll
The beat of the drum is loud and bold
Rock rock rock'n'roll
The feelin' is there body and soul

"Sea Cruise"

"Sea Cruise"



The old man rhythm's gotten in my shoes
Know you're sittin' here and singing the blues
So be my guest you got nothing to loose
Won't you let me take you on a see cruise

Huey huey babe, huey huey babe, huey huey babe
Won't you let me take you on a sea cruise

The boogie woogie's got me like a knife in a back

Won't you let me take you on a sea cruise

Huey huey babe, huey huey babe, huey huey babe
Won't you let me take you on a sea cruise

"Sea Of Heartbreak"

"Sea Of Heartbreak"



The lights in the harbor,
Don't shine for me.
I'm like a lost ship,
Adrift on the sea.

Sea of heartbreak, lost love an' loneliness;
Memories of your caress, so divine.
I wish you were mine again, my dear.
I am on this sea of tears:
Sea of heartbreak.

How did I lose you?
Oh, where did I fail?
Why did you leave me,
Always to sail?

This sea of heartbreak, lost love an' loneliness;
Memories of your caress, so divine.
How I wish you were mine again, my dear.
I am on this sea of tears:
Sea of heartbreak.

Oh, what I'd give to sail back to shore;
Back to your arms once more.

Oh, come to my rescue;
Come here to me .
Take me and keep me,
Away from the sea.

Yes, this sea of heartbreak, lost love an' loneliness;
Memories of your caress, so divine.
How I wish you were mine again, my dear.
I'm on this sea of tears:
Sea of heartbreak.

It's a sea of heartbreak.
