Warden threw a party
In he county jail
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 drummer boy 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
Shifty Henry said to Bugs
"For Heaven's sake
No one's looking, now's our
Chance to make a break"
Bugsy turned to Shifty
And he said, "Nix nix
I want to stick around
A while and get my kicks."
Let's rock,
Everybody let's rock
Everybody on the
Whole cell block
They were dancing
To the jailhouse rock
The sad sack was a sitting
On a block of stone
Way over in the corner
Weeping 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
