'm gonna write a little letter Gonna mail it to my local D.J. It's a rocking little record I want my jockey to play Roll over Beethoven Gotta hear it again today You know my temperature's rising And the jukebox's blowing a fuse My heart beating rhythm And my soul keeps singing the blues Roll over Beethoven and Tell Tchaikovsky the news I got a rocking pneumonia I need a shot of rhythm and blues I think I got it off the writer Sitting down by the rhythm review Roll over Beethoven We're rocking in two by two Well, if you feel it and like it Well, get your lover And reel and rock it Roll it over and move on up Just jump around and reel and rock it Roll it over, roll over Beethoven We're rocking in two by two, ooh Well, early in the morning I'm a givin you the warning Don't you step on my Blue suede shoes Hey diddle diddle Gonna play my fiddle Ain't got nothing to lose Roll over Beethoven and Tell Tchaikovsky the news You know she winks Like a glow worm Dance like a spinning top She's got a crazy partner Oughta see em reel and rock Long as she's got a dime The music will never stop Roll over Beethoven Roll over Beethoven Roll over Beethoven Roll over Beethoven Roll over Beethoven Dig to these rhythm and blues
