ROCK-ROCKOLA
(Lee Ross)

Merrill Moore - 1955



There's a dancin' treat a-waitin' for your feet
At a joint just out aways
Where they roll up their sleeves and nobody leaves
And the jukebox rockin' away

Hey, just a little dive where they dig the jive
On a nickel Victorola
Where the cats all meet and they shake their feet
To a tune called Rock-Rockola

So, rock it, rockola, rock it, rockola
Hands a-clappin' and feet a-tappin'
To a tune called Rock-Rockola

(Instrumental Break)

Well, they crank it up about nine o'clock
From then till dawn they don't ever stop
If they got change, no one complains
If Rock-Rokola's rollin'

For a nickel or a dime you can have a time
Where the cat's do all the showin'
You'll have a ball, join in the call
Where Rock-Rockola's flowin'

So, rock it, rockola, rock it, rockola
Hands a-clappin' and feet a-tappin'
To a tune called Rock-Rockola
