E
I`m gonna write a little letter,
E
Gonna mail it to my local DJ.
A
It`s a rockin` rhythm record
E
I want my jockey to play.
B E
Roll over Beethoven, I gotta hear it again today.
You know, my temperature`s risin`
And the jukebox blows a fuse.
My heart`s beatin` rhythm
And my soul keeps on singin` the blues.
Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news.
I got the rockin` pneumonia,
I need a shot of rhythm and blues.
I think I`m rollin` arthritis
Sittin` down by the rhythm review.
Roll over Beethoven rockin` in two by two.
BRIDGE
E
well, if you feel you like it
E
go get your lover, then reel and rock it.
E A
roll it over and move on up just
A E
a trifle further and reel and rock it, roll it over,
E B
roll over Beethoven rockin` in two by two.
Well, early in the mornin` I`m a-givin` you a warnin`
Don`t you step on my blue suede shoes.
Hey diddle diddle, I am playin` my fiddle,
Ain`t got nothin` to lose.
Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news.
You know she wiggles like a glow worm,
Dance like a spinnin` top.
She got a crazy partner,
Oughta see `em reel and rock.
Long as she got a dime the music will never stop.
Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven and dig these rhythm and blues.
