Up in the morning and out to school
The teacher is teaching the golden rule
American history and practical maths
Study ´em hard and hoping to pass
Working your fingers right down to the bone
And the guy behind you won´t leave you alone
Ring ring goes the bell
The cook in the lunch room is ready to sell
You´re lucky if you can find a seat
You´re fortunate if you have time to eat
Back in the classroom open your books
Gee but the teacher don´t know how mean she looks
Hail hail rock ´n´ roll
Soon as 3 o´clock rolls aroun´
You finally lay your burden down
Close down your books and out of your seat
Down the hall and into the street
Up to the corner and ´round the bend
Right to the juke joint you go in
Drop the coin right into the slot
You gotta hear something that´s really hot
Like me
With the one you love you´re makin´ romance
All day long you´ve been wanting to dance
Feeling the music from head to toe
Round and round and round you go
Long live rock ´n´ roll
