Lyric Jailhouse Rock - Elvis Presley

Lyric Song Jailhouse Rock: The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there and they began to wail
The joint was jumpin and the band began to swing
You should ve heard those knocked out jailbirds sing
Let s rockeverybodylet s rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
was dancin to the Jailhouse Rock

Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone
Little Joe was blowin on the slide trombone
The drummer boy from Illinois went crashboombang
the whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang
Let s rockeverybodylet s rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
was dancin to the Jailhouse Rock

Number forty seven said to number three
yquot;You re the cutest jailbird I ever did see
I sure would be delighted with your company
come on and do the Jailhouse Rock with meyquot;
Let s rockeverybodylet s rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
was dancin to the Jailhouse Rock

The sad sack was a sittin on a block of stone
way over in the corner weepin all alone
The warden saidyquot;Heybuddydon t you be no square
If you can t find a partner use a wooden chairyquot;
Let s rockeverybodylet s rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
was dancin to the Jailhouse Rock

Shifty Henry said to Bugsyquot;For Heaven s sake
no one s lookin now s our chance to make a breakyquot;
Bugsy turned to Shifty and he saidyquot;Nix nix
I wanna stick around a while and get my kicksyquot;
Let s rockeverybodylet s rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
was dancin to the Jailhouse Rock
