I`m gonna write a little letter,
Gonna mail it to my local DJ.
It`s a rockin` little record
I want my jockey to play.
Roll Over Beethoven, I gotta hear it again today.
You know, my temperature`s risin`
And the jukebox blows a fuse.
My heart`s beatin` rhythm
And my soul keeps on singin` the blues.
Roll Over Beethoven and tell Tschaikowsky the news.
I got the rockin` pneumonia,
I need a shot of rhythm and blues.
Think I got it off the writer
Sittin` down by the rhythm review.
Roll Over Beethoven rockin` in two by two.
Well, if you feel you like it
Go get your lover, then reel and rock it.
Roll it over and move on up just
A trifle further and reel and rock it,
Roll it over,
Roll Over Beethoven rockin` in two by two.
Well, early in the mornin` I`m a-givin` you a warnin`
Don`t you step on my blue suede shoes.
Hey diddle diddle, I will play my fiddle,
Ain`t got nothin` to lose.
Roll Over Beethoven and tell Tschaikowsky the news.
You know she wriggles like a glow worm,
Dance like a spinnin` top.
She got a crazy partner,
Oughta see `em reel and rock.
Long as she got a dime the music will never stop.
Roll Over Beethoven,
Roll Over Beethoven,
Roll Over Beethoven,
Roll Over Beethoven,
Roll Over Beethoven
And dig these rhythm and blues.
