Rock On

Words & Music:

David Essex

 

This is one of my favorite one-hit wonders and I am partial to the original David Essex version.  I still need the chords to this song.

 

Hey kid, rock and roll, rock on.  Ooh, my soul.

Hey kid, boogie too, did ya?

 

Hey shout, summertime blues.

Jump up and down in my blue suede shoes.

Hey kid, rock and roll, rock on.

 

And where do we go from here?

Which is the way that's clear?

 

Still looking for that blue jean, baby queen,

Prettiest girl I ever seen.

See her shake on the movie screen, Jimmy Dean.  (James Dean)

 

INSTRUMENTAL VERSE:

 

And where do we go from here?

Which is the way that's clear?

 

Still looking for that blue jean, baby queen,

Prettiest girl I ever seen.

See her shake on the movie screen, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean.

 

Rock on.  Rock on.  Rock on

Hey, hey, rock and roll, rock on.

Rock on, hey, hey, rock and roll, rock on.

Rock on, hey, hey, rock and roll, rock on.

Rock on, hey, hey, rock and roll, rock on.
