3.Jailhouse Rock

The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prisonband was there and they began to wail
The joint was jumping and the place began to swing
You should have heard those knocked out jailbirds sing

Let's rock
Everybody let's rock
Everybody on the whole cell block
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock

Spider murphy played the tenor saxophone
Little joe was blowin' on the slide trombone
The drummerboy from illinois went crash boom bang
The whole rhythm section was the purple gang

Let's rock
Everybody let's rock
Everybody on the whole cell block
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock

Well number 47 said to number 3
You're the cutest jailbird i ever did see
I sure'll be delighted with your company
Come on and do the jailhouse rock with me

Let's rock
Everybody let's rock
Everybody on the whole cell block
They were dancing to the jailhouse rock
Let's rock!

Sad sack was sittin' on a block of stone
Way over in the corner weepin' all alone
The warden said hey buddy don't you be no square
If you can't find a partner use a wooden chair

Let's rock
Everybody let's rock
Everybody on the whole cell block
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock

They were dancing to the jailhouse rock
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock
Everybody on the whole cell block
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock

They was dancing to, dancing to, dancing to, dancing to
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Oh they was dancing to, dancing to, dancing to, dancing to
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Everybody on the whole cell block
They was dancing to the jailhouse rock

Dancing to the jailhouse rock...


4.Minnie The Moocher

Hey folks here's the story 'bout minnie the moocher
She was a lowdown hoocie coocher
She was the roughest toughest frail
But minnie had a heart as big as a whale

Hidehidehidehi (hidehidehidehi)
Hodehodehodeho (hodehodehodeho)
Hedehedehedehe (hedehedehedehe)
Hidehidehideho (hidehidehideho)

She messed around with a bloke named smokie
She loved him though he was cokey
He took her down to chinatown
And showed her how to kick the gong around

Hidehidehidehi (hidehidehidehi)
Whoah (whoah)
Hedehedehedehe (hedehedehedehe)
A hidehidehideho (hidehidehideho)

She had a dream about the king of sweden
He gave her things that she was needin'
He gave her a home built of gold and steel
A diamond car with platinum wheels

A hidehidehidehidehidehidehi (hidehidehidehidehidehidehi)
Hodehodehodehodehodehodeho (hodehodehodehodehodehodeho)
... (...)
... (...)

He gave her his townhouse and his racing horses
Each meal she ate was a dozen courses
Had a million dollars worth of nickels and dimes
She sat around and counted them all a million times

Hidehidehidehi (hidehidehidehi)
Hodehodehodeho (hodehodehodeho)
Hedehedehedehe (hedehedehedehe)
Hidehidehideho (hidehidehideho)

Poor min, poor min, poor minnie

She caught the katy
And left me a mule to ride

Great gosh almighty my baby's tall
You know my baby's long
Great gosh almighty my baby's tall

And her feet's out in the hall
Crazy 'bout her
That hard headed woman of mine

Well i love my baby

Hard headed woman of mine
