That Is Rock and Roll - The Coasters
In the beginning there weren't nothin' but rocks
Then somebody invented the wheel
And things just began in to roll
Did you ever hear a tenor sax
Swingin' like a rusty axe
Honkin' like a frog
Down in a hollow log
Well baby that is rock and roll
Did you ever hear a guitar twang
Dingy dingy dingy dang
Ever hear those strings
Doin' crazy things
Well baby that is rock and roll
That ain't no freight train that you hear
Rollin' down the railroad tracks--
That's a country boy piano man
Playin' in between the cracks
You say that music's for the birds
And you can't understand the words
Well honey if you did
You'd really blow your lid
'Cause baby that is rock and roll
That ain't no freight train that you hear
Rollin' down the railroad tracks--
That's a country boy piano man
Playin' in between the cracks
You say that music's for the birds
And you can't understand the words
Well honey if you did
You'd really blow your lid
'Cause baby that is rock and roll In the mornin'
Baby that is rock and roll In the evenin'
Baby that is rock and roll
