write a little letter,
gonna mail it to my local DJ
It's a rocky little record,
I want my jockey to play
Roll over Beethoven,
gotta hit it again today
You know my temperature's risin'
out the jukebox for the fuse
A heart -beatin' rhythm
that my soul keeps a -singin' the blues
Roll over Beethoven,
I tell Tchaikovsky the news
I've got a rockin' pneumonia,
I need a shot of rhythm and blues
I think I caught it off the rider
sittin' down by the Rhythm Revue
Roll over Beethoven,
rockin' in two -by -two
Well if you feel it, like it,
get your lover and reel and rock it
Roll it over and move on up,
just travel further on a wheel and rock it
Roll it over, roll over Beethoven,
rockin' it two by two
Early in the morning,
I'm a -givin' you the warning
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Hey, diddle, diddle, I play my fiddle
Ain't got nothin' to lose
Roll over, beat open
Tell the check -offs, get a deuce
You know she wakes like a glowworm
Dances like a spinning top
She's got a crazy partner
Or is she in real love?
Honey, she got a dime
The music will never stop
Roll over, Beethoven
Roll over, Beethoven
Roll over, Beethoven
Roll over, Beethoven
Roll over, Beethoven
Take to these rhythm and blues you
