Jailhouse Rock

The warden threw a party in the county jail
 The prison band was there, and they began to wail
 The band was jumpin', and the joint began to swing
 You should've heard them knocked out jailbirds sing
 Let's rock
 Everybody, let's rock
 Everybody in the whole cell block
 Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
 Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone
 Little Joe was blowin' on the slide trombone
 The drummer boy from Illinois went crash, boom, bang
 The whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang
 Let's rock
 Everybody, let's rock
 Everybody in the whole cell block
 Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
 Number forty-seven said to number three
 "You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see"
 "I sure would be delighted with your company"
 "Come on and do the Jailhouse Rock with me"
 Let's rock
 Everybody, let's rock
 Everybody in the whole cell block
 Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
 Sad Sack was sittin' on a block of stone
 ♪
 Way over in the corner weepin' all alone
 The warden said, "Hey, buddy, don't you be no square
 "If you can't find a partner use a wooden chair"
 Let's rock
 Everybody, let's rock
 Everybody in the whole cell block
 Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
 Shifty Henry said to Bugs
 "For Heaven's sake"
 "No one's lookin', now's our chance to make a break"
 Bugsy turned to Shifty and he said, "Nix nix"
 "I wanna stick around awhile and get my kicks"
 Let's rock
 Everybody, let's rock
 Everybody in the whole cell block
 Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
