Letra:
Goin’ to a party in the county jail,
Prison band was there and they began to wail
Kid is shakin’ and began to sing;
You should’ve heard them knocked out jailbirds sing
Let’s rock! everybody, let’s rock!
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin’ to the jailhouse rock
Spider murphy sittin’ on a block of stone;
Little joey blowin’ on a slide trombone
Come on, silly willy, don’t you be no square
If you cannot find a partner, use a wooden chair
Let’s rock! everybody, let’s rock!
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin’ to the jailhouse rock
Shifty henry said to bugs,"for heaven’s sake,
No one’s lookin’; now’s our chance to make a break"
Bugsy turned to shifty and he said, "nix nix i
Wanna stick around awhile and get my kicks"
Let’s rock! everybody, let’s rock!
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin’ to the jailhouse rock
Prison band was there and they began to wail
Kid is shakin’ and began to sing;
You should’ve heard them knocked out jailbirds sing
Let’s rock! everybody, let’s rock!
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin’ to the jailhouse rock
Spider murphy sittin’ on a block of stone;
Little joey blowin’ on a slide trombone
Come on, silly willy, don’t you be no square
If you cannot find a partner, use a wooden chair
Let’s rock! everybody, let’s rock!
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin’ to the jailhouse rock
Shifty henry said to bugs,"for heaven’s sake,
No one’s lookin’; now’s our chance to make a break"
Bugsy turned to shifty and he said, "nix nix i
Wanna stick around awhile and get my kicks"
Let’s rock! everybody, let’s rock!
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin’ to the jailhouse rock
