Roll Over Beethoven
Beatles


Well gonna write a little letter
Gonna mail it to my local d.j

It's a rockin' little record
I want my jockey to play

Roll over Beethoven
Gotta hear it again today

You know my temperature's risin'
And the jukebox's blowin' a fuse

My hearts beatin' rhythm
And my soul keeps singing the blues

Roll over Beethoven
And tell Tchaikovsky the news

I got a rockin' pneumonia
I need a shot of rhythm and blues
Oooo

I think I got rollin' arthiritus
Sittin' down at the rhythm review

Roll over Beethoven
We're rockin' in two by two

Well, if you feel and like it
Well, get your lover and 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
A rockin' in two by two, Ooooo

Well early in the mornin'
I'm a givin' you the warnin'
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes

Hey diddle diddle
I'll play my fiddle
Ain't got nothing to lose
Roll over Beethoven
And tell Tchaikovsky the news

You know she wiggles like a glow worm
Dances like a spinnin' top

She's got a crazy partner
Oughta see 'em reel an rock

Long as she's got a dime
The music will never stop

Well, Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
And dig these
Rhythm and blues
