Baby, That Is Rock And Roll
Composer(s): Jerry Leiber - Mike Stoller
Performer(s): Jay & the Americans; The Rattles
In the beginning there was nothing but rocks
Then somebody invented the wheel
And things just begun to roll.....
Did you e-ver hear a ten-or sax
Swing-in' like a rus-ty axe
Honk-in' like a frog down in a hol-low log?
Ba-by, that is rock and roll
Did you ev-er hear a gui-tar twang
Jing-y jing-y jing-y jang
E-ver hear those strings down do-in' cra-zy things?
Ba-by, that is rock and roll
That ain't no freight train that I hear
Roll-in' down the rail-road tracks
That's a coun-try born pi-a-no man
Play-in' in be-tween the cracks
You say that mu-sic's for the birds
And you can't un-der-stand the words
Well ho-ney if you did, you'd real-ly blow your lid
'Cause ba-by that is rock and roll....
In the mor-nin, ba-by that is rock and roll....
In the eve-nin', ba-by that is rock and roll!
