Jailhouse rock Pop

The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there and they began to wail
The band was jumpin´ 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 dancin´ to the Jailhouse rock.

Spider Murphy played tenor saxophone
Little Joe was blowin´ on the slide trombone
The drummer boy from Illinois went crash, boom, bang
the whole rhytm section was the Purple Gang
Let´s rock, everybody let´s rock
Everybody in the whole cell block

was dancin´ 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 rock with me."
Let´s rock, everybody let´s rock
Everybody in the whole cell block

was dancin´ to the Jailhouse rock.

The 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 in the whole cell block

was dancin´ to the Jailhouse rock.

Shifty Henry said to Bugs: "For Heaven´s sake
no one´s lookin´, now´s our chance to make a break."
Bugsy turned to Shifty and he said "Nix, nix
I wanna stick around a while and get my kicks."
Let´s rock, everybody let´s rock
Everybody in the whole cell block

was dancin´ to the Jailhouse rock
was dancin´ to the Jailhouse rock
was dancin´ to the Jailhouse rock
was dancin´ to the Jailhouse rock
was dancin´ to the Jailhouse rock
