Jailhouse Rock - Early Version

One more one

I was throwin' a party in the county jail

The prison band was there and they began to wail

The band was really jumpin' and they began to swing

You should've heard them knocked down jailbirds sing

Let's rock, have a party, let's rock

Up in the corner in Old Cell Block

Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Number forty-seven sat there numb as a tree

He's got a cute little girl but I haven't seen

I saw her feet lightin' with the rumble of her knees

She was groovin' to the Jailhouse Rock with me

Let's rock, have a party, let's rock

Up in the corner in Old Cell Block

Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Spider Murphy played upon the treble of the saxophone

Little Joe was blowin' on the slide trombone

The drummer boy from Illinois was crashin' them boots

The whole rhythm section was a poor poor gang of roots

Let's rock, have a party, let's rock

Up in the corner in Old Cell Block

Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Up in the corner in Old Cell Block

Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock, yeah

Oh yeah

Ah ah ah ah ah

Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Ah ah ah ah
