SWEET LITTLE ROCK 'N' ROLLER
(Chuck Berry)
CHUCK BERRY (Chess 1709, 1958)

Only nine years old and sweet as she can be
All dressed up like a down town christmas tree
Dancin' and a-hummin' a rock-roll melody

She's the daughter of a well respected man
Who taught her how to judge and understand
Since she became a rock-roll music fan

Sweet little rock'n'roller
Sweet little rock'n'roller
Her daddy don't have to scold her
Her partner can hardly hold her
She never gets any older
Sweet little rock'n'roller

Should've seen her eyes when the band began to play
And the famous singers sang and bowed away
When the star performed she screamed and yelled: "hooray"

Ten tousand eyes were watching him leave the floor
Five thousand tongues were screamin': "more and more!"
About fifteen hundred waiting outside her door

Sweet little rock'n' roller
