E I'm gonna write a little letter, E Gonna mail it to my local DJ. A It's a rockin' rhythm record E I want my jockey to play. B E Roll over Beethoven, I gotta hear it again today.
You know, my temperature's risin' And the jukebox blows a fuse. My heart's beatin' rhythm And my soul keeps on singin' the blues. Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news.
I got the rockin' pneumonia, I need a shot of rhythm and blues. I think I'm rollin' arthritis Sittin' down by the rhythm review. Roll over Beethoven rockin' in two by two.
BRIDGE E well, if you feel you like it E go get your lover, then reel and rock it. E A roll it over and move on up just A E a trifle further and reel and rock it, roll it over, E B roll over Beethoven rockin' in two by two.
Well, early in the mornin' I'm a-givin' you a warnin' Don't you step on my blue suede shoes. Hey diddle diddle, I am playin' my fiddle, Ain't got nothin' to lose. Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news.
You know she wiggles like a glow worm, Dance like a spinnin' top. She got a crazy partner, Oughta see 'em reel and rock. Long as she got a dime the music will never stop.
Roll over Beethoven, Roll over Beethoven, Roll over Beethoven, Roll over Beethoven, Roll over Beethoven and dig these rhythm and blues.
