Lyrics
Sweet Little Rock 'n' Roller
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Nineteen years old and as sweet as she could be.
All dressed up like a down-town Christmas tree.
Dancing and humming a rock'n'roll melody, ooh.
She's the daughter of a well respected man
Who taught her how to jerk and understand.
Then she became a rock'n'roll music fan.
Sweet little rock'n'roller, Sweet little rock'n'roller.
Her daddy doesn't have to scold her, her partner can't hardly hold her
Because she never gets any older…
Sweet little rock'n'roller!
Should have seen her eyes when the band began to play
And the famous singer sang and bowed away.
When the stars were formed she screamed and yells were rave.
Ten thousand eyes were watching them leave the floor…
Five thousand tongues were screaming out "More and more"…
About fifteen hundred waitin' outside the door!
Sweet little rock'n'roller, Sweet little rock'n'roller.
Her daddy doesn't have to scold her, her partner can't hardly hold her
Because she never gets any older…
Sweet little rock'n'roller!
Oh, yeah…
Ooooh!
Sweet, sweet, sweet little rock'n'roller, Sweet little rock'n'roller.
Her daddy doesn't have to scold her, her partner can't hardly hold her
Because she never gets any older…
Sweet little rock'n'roller!
Sweet little rock'n'roller…
Sweet little rock'n'roller…
Sweet little rock'n'roller…
Sweet little rock'n'roller…
You know she never gets any older, Sweet little rock'n'roller.
Oh, yeah…
Oh, yeah…
Oooooh!
Ooh!
