Roll Over, Beethoven

Hey George, hey!
You know who Beethoven is?
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Johnny I don't even know who Tchaikovsky is
Well we're gonna do a song about both of 'em
We're gonna learn something
Listen up!

We're gonna write a little letter
Gonna mail it to our local DJ
Yeah, it's a jumpin' little record
Me and Johnny wants to talk you to play

Roll over Beethoven
Gotta hear it again today

Yeah, you know my temperature's a risin'
That jukebox is blowin' a fuse
Don't get all messed up John
My heart's a beatin' rhythm John
And my soul keeps a singin' the blues

Roll over Beethoven
And tell Tchaikovsky the news

John, we got the rockin' pneumonia
We need a shot of rhythm and blues
Yeah, we caught the rollin' arthritis
Sittin' at a rhythm revue
Yeah, huh!

Roll over Beethoven
They're rockin' in a two by two

Well if you feel like it
Go get your lover, then reel and rock it
Roll it over then move on up
Just a trifle further
Reel and rock with one another

Roll over Beethoven
Give me rhythm and blues

Yeah, early in the mornin'
I'm givin' you my warnin'
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Hey, diddle, diddle
I'm playin' my fiddle
'Cause I ain't got nothin' to lose

Roll over Beethoven
Tell Tchaikovsky the news

You know she wiggle like a glow worm
Dances like a spinnin' top
Yeah, got a crazy little partner
You oughta see 'em reel and rock
John, long as she's got a dime
That music ain't gonna ever stop

Roll over Beethoven, roll over
Roll over Beethoven, roll over
Roll over Beethoven, roll over
Roll over Beethoven, roll over
Roll over Beethoven
And give me rhythm and blues
Roll over Beethoven, roll over
Roll over Beethoven, roll over
Roll over Beethoven, roll over
Roll over Beethoven, roll over

Roll over Beethoven
Give me rhythm and blues
