Animals - 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 those 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.

The sad sack was a 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 a while and get my kicks.
Let`s rock, everybody, let`s rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
was dancin` to the Jailhouse Rock
