A

Listen everybody let me tell you 'bout the rock'n'roll 

A                                                  E  

Feel that rhythm and it's really gonna thrill your soul 

         D                        A

She said come along with me, to a land of make believe 

                           E              A

She said whamalamabamalama rock'n'roll is king 

 

She loves that rock'n'roll and she plays it all night long 

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 whamalamabamalama rock'n'roll is king 

 

Chorus 

             D       A 

Oh let those guitars play 

         E           A

Play for me play for me 

            D         A 

Oh let that song ring out 

       E*                A* 

That's how it's meant to be 

 

It rolls like a train that's comin' on down the track 

She rolled over Beethoven and she gave Tchaikovsky back 

She loves that drivin' beat, she goes dancin' on down the street 

She said whamalamabamalama rock'n'roll is king 

 

Repeat Chorus 

 

When she comes around and I'm listenin' to the radio 

She says you can't do that 'cos all I wanna do is rock'n'roll 

Now here I'm gonna stay when that music starts to play 

She says whamalamabamalama rock'n'roll is king
