well i'm gonna write a little letter
gonna mail it to my local dj
yes it's a jumpin' little record
i want my joggin' to play
roll over beethoven
i gotta hear it again today
you know my temperature's rising
and the jukebox's blowing a fuse
my heart's beating rhythm
and my soul keeps singing the blues
roll over beethoven
and tell tchaikovsky the news
well if you feel you like it
go get your lover then reel and rock it
roll it over then move on up just to travel further
then reel and rock with one another
roll over beethoven
and dig these rhythm and blues
bye bye bye bye
bye bye bye bye bye
bye johnny bye bye johnny b goode
bye bye bye bye
bye bye bye bye bye
bye johnny bye bye johnny b goode
just let me hear some of that rock and roll music
any old way you choose it
it's got a back beat you can't lose it
any old time you use it
it's gotta be rock and roll music
if you wanna dance with me
if you wanna dance with me
i got no kick against modern jazz
unless they try to play it too darn fast
and change the beauty of the melody
until they sound just like a symphony
that's why i go for that rock and roll music
any old way you choose it
it's got a back beat you can't lose it
any old time you
use it it's gotta be rock and roll music
if you wanna dance with me
if you wanna dance with me

oh arrested on charges of unemployment
he was sitting in the witness stand
the judge's wife called up the district attorney said
free that brown eyed man
you want your job you better free that brown eyed man
flying across the desert in a t w a
i saw a woman walking across the sand
she'd been walking thirty miles all route to bombay
to get a brown eyed handsome man
