R-O-C-K Songtext
von Bill Haley

R-O-C-K, R-O-C-K, rock

Making R from an eight
To the bar 88
O from the tone of the sax syncopated
C from the key of a six-string guitar
K from the kick of a rim shot, baby

That′s how they made it
That's how they played it
R-O-C-K, rock

I know my A′s and my B's and my C's
P′s and my Q′s and my X, Y, Z's
Know how to lose
All the blue, blue, blues
Jump in a pair of my dancing shoes

Take with my baby
Rock with my baby
R-O-C-K, rock


Oh, Strauss discovered waltzes
A handy man found the blues
And here they came along
With their rocking song
Crazy, man, crazy, crazy news

R is all the rock, hear the band
It′s a-moving
O more than that, it's a go-go grooving
C what I mean, it′s a hot top action
K like a kiss it's a cool attraction

Who even get you
I′m gonna bet you
R-O-C-K, rock

R-O-C-K, R-O-C-K, rock

Oh, Strauss discovered waltzes
A handy man found the blues
And here they came along
With their rocking song
Crazy, man, crazy, crazy news

R you will have to hear the band
It's a-moving
O more than that, it's a go-go grooving
C what I mean, it′s a hot top action
K like a kiss it′s a cool attraction


Who even get you
I'm gonna bet you
R-O-C-K, rock
