The Blues Brothers - Jailhouse Rock lyrics

Your rating:

The warden threw a party in the county jail 
The prisonband was there and they began to wail 
The joint was jumping and the place began to swing 
You should have heard those knocked out jailbirds sing 


Let`s rock 
Everybody let`s rock 
Everybody on the whole cell block 
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock 


Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone 
Little Joe was blowin` on the slide trombone 
The drummerboy from Illinois went crash boom bang 
The whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang 


Let`s rock 
Everybody let`s rock 
Everybody on the whole cell block 
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock 


Well number 47 said to number 3 
You`re the cutest jailbird I ever did see 
I sure`ll be delighted with your company 
Come on and do the jailhouse rock with me 


Let`s rock 
Everybody let`s rock 
Everybody on the whole cell block 
They were dancing to the jailhouse rock 
Let`s rock! 


Sad Sack was sittin` on a block of stone 
Way over in the corner weepin` all alone 
The warden said Hey buddy don`t you be no square 
If you can`t find a partner use a wooden chair 


Let`s rock 
Everybody let`s rock 
Everybody on the whole cell block 
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock 


They were dancing to the jailhouse rock 
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock 
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock 
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock 
Everybody on the whole cell block 
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock 


They was dancing to, dancing to, dancing to, dancing to 
Dancing to the jailhouse rock 
Oh they was dancing to, dancing to, dancing to, dancing to 
Dancing to the jailhouse rock 
Everybody on the whole cell block 
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock 


Dancing to the jailhouse rock...
