ROCK-ROCKOLA
(Lee Ross)
MERRIL MOORE (CAPITOL F3034, 1955)

There's a dancing treat
Awaiting for your feet
At a joint just out a-ways
Where they roll up there sleeves
And nobody leaves
And the jukebox rocking away
Hey, just a little dive
Where they dig the jive
On a nickel Victor-Ola
Where the cats all meet
And they shake their feet
To a tune called Rock-Rock Ola

So rock it, Rock Ola rock it
Rock Ola, hands a-clapping and feet a-tapping
To a tune called Rock-Rock Ola

Well, they crank it up
About 9 o'clock
From then till dawn they don't ever stop
If they got change, no one complains
If Rock-Rock Ola's blowing
For a nickel or a dime
You can have a time
Where the cats do all their showing
You'll have a ball
Join in the call
Where Rock-Rock Ola's blowing

So rock it, Rock Ola rock it
Rock Ola, hands a-clapping and feet a-tapping
To a tune called Rock-Rock Ola
