Blues Brors - Jailhouse Rock lyrics

1. 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 them knocked out jailbirds sing Let's rock, everybody, let's rock, everybody in the whole cell block Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock 2. Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone Little Joe was blowin' on the slide trombone The drummer boy from Illinois went crash, boom, bang The whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang Let's rock, everybody, let's rock, everybody in the whole cell block Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock 3. 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 do the Jailhouse Rock with me Let's rock, everybody, let's rock., wverybody in the whole cell block Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock Instr. 4. 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 5. 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 Schluss Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
