(Parfitt, Williams) once upon a time not so very long ago there wasn't such a thing as a rock and roll show you had to sit at home and listen to the radio then came a man with a rocking guitar he found himself a beat and he played it near and far everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll again again again again again again again again why don't you do it? why don't you do it again? again again again again again again again again why don't you do it? why don't you do it again? he travelled around the world in a rock and roll band he stood there like a child 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 again again again again again again again why don't you do it? why don't you do it again? again again again again again again again again why don't you do it? why don't you do it again? now we got the rhythm now we 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 the rhyme 'cause he couldn't find the time but still the people came to listen to the good times roll again again again again again again again again why don't you do it? why don't you do it again? again again again again again again again again why don't you do it? why don't you do it again? again again again again again again again again why don't you do it? why don't you do it again? why don't you do it? why don't you do it again? i said why don't you do it? why don't you do it again?
