Rock And Roll Music

Chuck Berry / Chuck Berry (1957)

A A
Just let me hear some of that Rock And Roll Music,
Any old way you choose it; 
D7
It's got a back beat, you can't loose it,
A A7
Any old time you use it.
E7
It's gotta be Rock Roll Music,
E7 A
if you wanna dance with me,
E7 A
if you wanna dance with me.
 
A E7
I've got no kick against modern jazz
A
unless they try to play it too darn fast
D
and change the beaty of the melody
E7
until it sounds just like a symphony
That's why I go just for that Rock and Roll Music, 
Any old way you choose it; 
It's got a back beat, you can't loose it, 
Any old time you use it. 
It's gotta be Rock Roll Music, 
if you wanna dance with me, 
if you wanna dance with me. 
 
I took my love on over 'cross the tracks 
So she could hear a man a-wailin' sax. 
I must admit they had a rockin' band 
And they were blowin' like a hurrican'. 
That's why I go just for that Rock And Roll Music... 
 
Way down south they had a jubilee 
the rockin' folks they gave a jamburee 
drinkin' home-brewn from a wooden cup 
man, you should have seen them all shook up! 
That's why I go just for that Rock And Roll Music... 
 
Don't care to hear 'em play a tango, 
I'm in the mood to dig a mambo; 
It's way to early for a congo, 
So keep a rockin' that piano 
So I can hear some of that Rock And Roll Music... 
That's why I go just for that Rock And Roll Music...
