Well listen everybody let me tell you ’bout the rock ’n’ roll
Oh feel that rhythm and it’s really gonna thrill your soul
Hmm come along with me, to a land of make believe
She said, "Rock ’n’ roll is King"

She loves that rock ’n’ roll and she plays it all night long
Oh that’s all she ever tells me when I call her on the telephone
She says, "Feel that jumpin’ beat, and git up on your feet"
She says, "Rock ’n’ roll is King"

Oh let those guitars play
Play for me, play for me
Oh 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
Oh she loves that drivin’ beat, she goes dancin’ on down the street
She said, "Rock ’n’ roll is King", oh rock on

Oh let those guitars play
Play for me, play for me
Oh 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 ’n’ roll"
Now here I’m gonna stay where that music starts to play
She says, "Rock ’n’ roll is King"

Oh yeah, rock ’n’ roll is King
Oh oh, rock ’n’ roll is King
Ooh yeah, rock ’n’ roll is King
She said, "Rock ’n’ roll is King"
