Written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller. This is Queen's version. The warden threw a party in the county jail prison band was there and they began to wail band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing should've heard thosed kocked out jail birds sing Chorus Lets Rock ! Everybody Lets Rock ! Every body in the whole cell block Was a- dancin' to the Jail-house Rock! Spid er Murphy played the tenor saxophone Little Joe was blowin' on the slide trombone The drummer boy for Illinois went crash, boom, bang ! The whole rhythm section was the purple gang Chorus Numb er forty seven said to Number Three: You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see. I sure would be delighted with your company Come on and do the jailhouse rock with me. Chorus The sad sack was a-sittin' 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 !" Chorus Shif ty Henry said to Bugs: "For Heaven's sakes, No one's lookin'; now's our chance to make a break Bugsy turned to Shifty and he said " Nix, nix; I wanna stick around a while and get my kicks.
