Jailhouse Rock Lyrics
[Jerry Leiber/Mike Stoller]



Warden threw a party in the county jail

Prison band plays, they began to wail

Band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing

Should've heard those knocked out jailbirds sing



[CHORUS:]



Let's rock

Everybody let's rock

Everybody in the whole cell block

Dancin' to a jailhouse rock



Shifty Henry said, for the heaven's sake

No one lookin', now our chance to make a break

Bugs turned to Shifty, said nix nix

Gonna stick around, gonna get my kicks



[REPEAT CHORUS]



Number Forty zero said to number Three

You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see

Sure I'd be delighted with your company

Come on and do the jailhouse cock with me



[REPEAT CHORUS]



[Solo - left: Jay Jay, right: Eddie]



Sad sack was sittin' on a block of stone

Over in the floor weepin' all alone

Warden said, hey buddy, don'tcha be no square

Can't find a partner, f*ck a wooden chair



[REPEAT CHORUS]



Shifty Henry said, for the heaven's sake

No one lookin', now our chance to make a break

Bugs turned to Shifty, said nix nix

Gonna stick around, I wanna get my kicks



[REPEAT CHORUS]



Dancin' to a jailhouse rock

Dancin' to a jailhouse rock

Dancin' to a jailhouse rock

Dancin' to a jailhouse rock

Everybody in the whole cell block

Dancin' to a jailhouse rock

Everybody in the whole cell block

Said, a-dancin' to a jailhouse rock
