the warden threw a party
in the county jail
the prisonband was there and they
began to wail
the joint was jumping and the
place began to swing
you should have heard those knocked out
jailbirds sing let’s rock
everybody let’s rock
everybody on the whole cell block
they was dancing to the jailhouse rock
spider murphy played
the tenor saxophone
little joe was blowin’
on the slide trombone
the drummerboy from illinois
went crash boom bang
the whole rhythm section was
the purple gang let’s rock
everybody let’s rock
everybody on the whole cell block
they was dancing to the jailhouse rock
well number forty-seven
said to number three

did see
i sure’ll be delighted with
your company
come on and do the jailhouse rock
with me let’s rock
everybody let’s rock
everybody on the whole cell block
they were dancing to the jailhouse rock
let’s rock
ПР-Ш:
sad sack was sittin’ 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 on the whole cell block
they was dancing to the jailhouse rock
