We're gonna write a little letter Gonna mail it to my local DJ It's a rockin' little record I want my jockey to play Roll over, Beethoven Gotta hit it again today You know, my temperature's risin' And the jukebox blows a fuse My heart beatin' rhythm And my soul keeps a-singing the blues Roll over, Beethoven And tell Tchaikovsky the news I got a rockin' pneumonia I need a shot of rhythm and blues I think I caught it arthuritis Sittin' down by the rhythm revue Roll over, Beethoven Rockin' in two by two Well, if you feel it and like it Well, get your lover and reel and rock it Roll it over and move on up just Trifle further and a-reel and rock it Roll it over Roll over, Beethoven A-rockin' in two by two Well, early in the mornin' I'm a givin' you the warnin' Don't you step on my blue suede shoes Hey, diddle, diddle I'm a-playin' my fiddle Ain't got nothing to lose Roll over, Beethoven And tell Tchaikovsky the news You know she winks like a glow worm Dance like a spinnin' top She's got a crazy partner Oughta see him reel an' rock 'S long as she got a dime The music will never stop Well, roll over, Beethoven Yeah, roll over, Beethoven Roll over, Beethoven Oh, roll over, Beethoven Roll over, Beethoven Dig to these rhythm and blues
