[E] I' m gonna write a little letter,
[E] G onna mail it to my local DJ.
It's a [A] rockin' rhythm record
I want my [E] jock ey to play.
Roll [B] over Beethoven, I gotta hear it [E] ag ain 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] we ll, if you feel you like it
[E] g o get your lover, then reel and rock it.
[E] rol l it over and move [A] on up just
[A] a trifle further and reel and [E] ro ck it, roll it over,
[E] ro ll over Beethoven rockin' [B] 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.
