Once upon a time not so very long ago
There wasn't such a thing as a rock'n roll-show.
You had to sit at home and listen to the radio.
Then came a man with a rockin' guitar
Found himself a beat and he pkayed it near and far.
Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll.
Again and again
and again and again and again
And again and again.
Why don't you do it -
Why don't you do it again.
Again and again and again...
Travelled round the world in a rock and roll band
He stood like a giant with a guitar in his hand.
Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll.
Nobody cared about the clothes he would wear -
Nobody cared about the colour of his hair.
Everybody came to see and let the good times roll.
Again and again
...
Now we've got the rhythm in us
now we've got the rock -
Time didn't matter
never living by the clock.
Everybody came to hear him play his rock and roll.
Then came a line when the music didn't rhyme.
He couldn't find a rhythm
'cos he couldn't find the time
But still the people came to listen to the good times roll.
Again and again
...
Again and again
...
Again and again and again and again
And again and again.
Why don't you do it -
Why don't you do it again.
Why don't you do it -
Why don't you it again.
