[Verse 1]
The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there, and they began to wail
The band began to-jumping, they began to swing
You should have heard the knockdown jailbird sing
[Chorus]
Let's rock, everybody let's rock
Oh everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the jailhouse rock
[Verse 2]
Number 47 said to number three
You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see
I sure would be delighted with your company
So come and do the jailhouse rock with me
[Chorus]
Let's rock, everybody let's rock
Oh everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the jailhouse rock, yeah!
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Spider Murphy played on the tenor saxophone
Little Joe was blowin' on a slide trombone
Drummer boy from Illinois was crash-a-bam boomin'
The whole rhythm section was the purple gang
[Chorus]
Let's rock, everybody let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the jailhouse rock
[Bridge]
Listen
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the jailhouse rock, yeah!
Everybody in the whole cell block
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
C'mon
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the jailhouse
The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there, and they began to wail
The band began to-jumping, they began to swing
You should have heard the knockdown jailbird sing

Let's rock, everybody let's rock
Oh everybody in the whole cell block
