Crocodile
Rock
~Elton John~
I remember
when rock was young
Me and Suzie
had so much fun
holding
hands and skimming stones
Had an old
gold Chevy and a place of my own
But the
biggest kick I ever got
was doing
a thing called the Crocodile Rock
While the
other kids were Rocking Round the Clock
we were
hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock
Well Crocodile
Rocking is something shocking
when your
feet just can't keep still
I never
knew me a better time and I guess I never will
Oh Lawdy
mama those Friday nights
when Suzie
wore her dresses tight
and the
Crocodile Rocking was out of sight
But the
years went by and the rock just died
Suzie went
and left us for some foreign guy
Long nights
crying by the record machine
dreaming
of my Chevy and my old blue jeans
But they'll
never kill the thrills we've got
burning
up to the Crocodile Rock
Learning
fast as the weeks went past
we really
thought the Crocodile Rock would last
