Lyrics
0:07The warden threw a party in the county jail
0:09The prison band was there and they began to wail
0:12The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing
0:15You should've heard those knocked out jailbirds sing
0:18Let's rock everybody let's rock
0:23Everybody in the whole cell block
0:26Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
0:29Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone
0:32Little Joe was blowin' on the slide trombone
0:35The drummer boy from Illinois went crash boom bang
0:38The whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang
0:40Let's rock everybody let's rock
0:46Everybody in the whole cell block
0:49Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
0:52Number forty-seven said to number three:
0:55"You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see
0:57I sure would be delighted with your company
1:00Come on and do the Jailhouse Rock with me "
1:03Let's rock everybody let's rock
1:09Everybody in the whole cell block
1:12Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
1:26The sad sack was a sittin' on a block of stone
1:29Way over in the corner weepin' all alone
1:31The warden said "Hey buddy don't you be no square
1:34If you can't find a partner use a wooden chair "
1:37Let's rock everybody let's rock
1:43Everybody in the whole cell block
1:46Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
1:49Shifty Henry said to Bugs "For Heaven's sake
1:50No one's lookin' now's our chance to make a break "
1:55Bugsy turned to Shifty and he said "Nix nix
1:57I wanna stick around a while and get my kicks "
2:00Let's rock everybody let's rock
2:06Everybody in the whole cell block
2:09Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
2:12Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
2:13END
