Jailhouse Rock Medley - Live At The Hammersmith Odeon, London / 1975

Warden threw a party in the county jail

Prison band was there and they began to wail

The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing

Should've heard them knocked out jailbirds sing

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock and roll tonight

Everybody in the whole cell block

Dancin' to the jailhouse rock

Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone

Little Joe was blowing on the slide trombone

The drummer boy from Illinois went crash, boom, bang

Whole rhythm section was the purple gang

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock and roll tonight

Everybody in the whole cell block

Dancing to the jailhouse rock, come on

Number forty-seven said to number three

'You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see'

'Sure would be delighted with your company'

'Come on and do the jailhouse rock with me'

Let's rock, come on, everybody, let's rock and roll tonight

Everybody in the whole cell block

Dancing to the jailhouse rock, one more time

Stupid cupid you're a real mean guy

Ooh, and you can fly

Oooh, it's a crying shame

Stupid cupid, stop playing that game

Hey, hey, set me free

Stupid cupid stop a picking on

Be bop a lula - you're shooting my baby

Be bop a lula - she's driving me crazy

Be bop a lula - I know what you're saying

Be bop a lula - don't a play that game

Oh rock and roll, rock and roll, everybody, oh, oh, oh
