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 I 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 I think I got it off the writer Sittin' down by the rhythm review Roll over Beethoven We're rockin' in two by two Well if you feel you like it Well get your lover and reel and rock it Roll it over and move on up Just jump around and reel and rock it Roll it over Roll over Beethoven A rockin' in two by two , oh Well early in the mornin' I'm a givin' you the warnin' Don't you step on my blue suede shoes Hey diddle diddle Gonna 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 Dance like a spinnin' top She got a crazy partner Oughta see 'em reel an rock Long as she's got a dime The music will never stop Roll over Beethoven Roll over Beethoven Roll over Beethoven Roll over Beethoven Roll over Beethoven And dig these rhythm and blues
