ROLL OVER BEETHOVEN (By Chuck Berry, 1963. Sung by George)
We're gonna write a little letter
gonna mail it to my local DJ
it's a rocking litle record
I want my jockey to play
roll over Beethoven gotta hear it again today.
You know my temperature's rising
and the jukebox blows a fuse
my heart beatin' rhythm
and my soul keeps on singing 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' arthiritis
sittin' down by the rhythm review
roll over Beethoven rockin' in two by two.
Well if you're feeling like it
get your lover and reel and rock it
roll it over and move on up just
a triffle further and reel and rock it
roll it over
roll over Beethoven we're rocking in two by two.
Early in the morning
I'm a giving you the warning
don't you step on my blue suede shoes
hey diddle diddle I will play my fiddle
ain't nothing to lose
roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news
You know she wiggles like a glow worm
dance like a spinnin' top
she's got a crazy partner
ought to 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, dig it to those rhythm and blues.
