Lyrics

Just got back from the downtown Palais
 Where the music was so sweet
 It knocked me right back in the alley
 I'm ready, yea, yea, yea, I'm ready
 Wo, wo, wo, I'm ready
 And I'm really gonna rock tonight
 Sweet little lady sings like a songbird
 And she sings the opera like you ain't never heard
 But she ain't ready
 No, no, no, she ain't ready
 She ain't ready
 And she ain't gonna rock & roll
 She's sweet on Wagner
 I think she'd die for Beethoven
 She loves the way Puccini lays down a tune
 And Verdi's always creeping from her room
 Come on I'll show you how to sing the blues
 Now baby, come on over you got nothin' to lose
 Are you ready, hey, hey, hey are you ready
 Ooh, ooh, ooh, are you ready
 Are you ready
 I want to show you how to rock & roll
 Now listen here baby she, said to me
 Just, meet me at the opera house at a quarter to three
 'Cause I'm ready, yea, yea, yea, I'm ready
 Woo, hoo, hoo, I'm ready
 I'm gonna show you how to sing the blues
 She's sweet on Wagner
 I think she'd die for Beethoven
 She loves the way Puccini lays down a tune
 And Verdi's always creeping from her room
 Far, far away the music is playing
 Well we were reelin' and a rockin' all through the night
 Yea we were rockin' at the opera house until the break of light
 And the orchestra were playin' all chuck berry's greatest tunes
 And the singers in the chorus all got off on singing blues
 And as the night grew older everybody was as one
 The people on the streets came running in to join in song
 Just to hear the opera singer singin' rock & roll so pure
 I thought I saw the mayor there but I wasn't really sure
 But it's alright
