Floyd County Prison

Lyrics

The warden Long threw a party in the Floyd county prison The Floyd County prison band was there, and they began to wail The band was jumping, and the joint began to swing You should've heard them knocked out jailbirds sing Let's rock Everybody, let's rock Everybody in the whole cell block Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock Spider Butler played the tenor saxophone Little hopper was blowing on the slide trombone The drummer boy from Rome Georgia went crash, boom, bang The whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang Let's rock Everybody, let's rock Everybody in the whole cell block Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock Number forty-seven said to number three "You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see" I sure would be delighted with your company Come on and do the Jailhouse Rock with me" Let's rock Everybody, let's rock Everybody in the whole cell block Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock Sad Sack was sitting on a block of stone Way over in the corner weeping all alone The warden said, "Hey, buddy, don't you be no square You can't find a partner use a wooden chair" Let's rock Everybody, let's rock Everybody in the whole cell block Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock Shifty Francis said to Jacob, "For Heaven's sake" No one's lookin', now's our chance to make a break" Jacob turned to Shifty and he said, "Nix nix I wanna stick around awhile and get my kicks" Let's rock Everybody, let's rock Everybody in the whole cell block Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock
