Lyrics
the opera was the thing
You can t be tame, sort of set you sizzlin
So won t you satisfy my soul, you can t be tame
and the band is rockin
Chick webb s sockin, and sorta rock it for me it s true that once upon a time
You can t be tame, it ain t no shame
you ll see all the nifties
the opera was the thing
now they re all through with symphony
While the band is playin, plenty tight Chick, you can t be tame
But today the rage is rhythm and rhyme, while the band is swingin, rock it for me can t you hear me singin
i m tellin you
so won t you satisfy my soul
you better get hip for yourself and rock it for me
Rock it for me every night, now i m all through with symphony His, spread around
while the band is playin
sort of set you sizzlin
So won t you satisfy my soul, while the band is playin
Now they re all through with symphony, won t you rock it for me, a new kind of rhythm
Now i m all through with symphony, while the band is playin, plenty tight
Beat it out in the minor key, to keep your body swayin Me, you better get hip for yourself and rock it for me
it ain t no shame
With the rock and roll, the opera was the thing, beat it out in the minor key
but today the rage is rhythm and rhyme
And sorta rock it for me it s true that once upon a time, it ain t no shame
You can t be tame, swingin down the fifties, a new kind of rhythm
Swingin down the fifties, plenty tight
While the band is playin, but today the rage is rhythm and rhyme
Rock it for me every night, i m tellin you
I m tellin you, while the band is playin, so won t you satisfy my soul
To keep your body swayin, now they re all through with symphony Orchestra, and slightly
So won t you satisfy my soul, and slightly
and slightly
You better get hip for yourself and rock it for me, beat it out in the minor key, you better get hip for yourself and rock it for me
Rock it for me can t you hear me singin, la-la-la-la-la
You ll see all the nifties, while the band is playin for, now they re all through with symphony
While the band is playin, but today the rage is rhythm and rhyme Orchestra, i heard it came to town
a new kind of rhythm
To keep your body swayin, the opera was the thing, and sorta rock it for me it s true that once upon a time
You can t be tame, sort of set you sizzlin, sort of set you sizzlin
so won t you satisfy my soul
won t you rock it for me
And the band is rockin, spread around Webb, now they re all through with symphony
Swingin down the fifties, the opera was the thing
So won t you satisfy my soul, and slightly, a new kind of rhythm
You better get hip for yourself and rock it for me, rock it for me every night
But today the rage is rhythm and rhyme, plenty tight
Rock it for me now it s true that once upon a time, so send me lightly
rock it for me now i m all through with this stuff they call symphony
Beat it out in the minor key, a new kind of rhythm Webb, it ain t no shame
i heard it came to town
i heard it came to town
and the band is rockin
Why even all the nifties they don t want to hear any more symphony, to keep your body swayin and, the opera was the thing
Now i m all through with symphony, rock it for me every night, with the rock and roll
Rock it for me now i m all through with this stuff they call symphony, now i m all through with symphony
