Well, listen everybody
Let me tell you 'bout the rock and roll
Feel that rhythm
And it's really gonna thrill your soul

Come along with me
To a land of make believe
She said, "Rock and roll is king"

She loves that rock and roll
And she plays it all night long
That's all she ever tells me
When I call her on the telephone

She says, "Feel that jumpin' beat
And get up on your feet
She said, "Rock and roll is king"

Let those guitars play
Play for me, play for me
Let that song ring out
That's how it's meant to be

Well, it rolls like a train
That's comin' on down the track
She rolled over Beethoven
And she gave Tchaikovsky back

She loves that drivin' beat
She goes dancin' on down the street
She said, "Rock and roll is king"

Let those guitars play
Play for me, play for me
Let that song ring out
That's how it's meant to be

Well, when she comes around
And I'm listenin' to the radio
She says, "You can't do that
'Cause all I wanna do is rock and roll"

Now here I'm gonna stay
Where that music starts to play
She said, "Rock and roll is king"

Rock and roll is king
Rock and roll is king
Rock and roll is king
Rock and roll is king

She said, "Rock and roll is king"
