One little party in the county jail
Prison men was there, they began to wait
Band was jumping and the joy began to swing
You should have heard those knock-out jailbirds sing
[G] Let's rock, ba ba ba ba do ba
Everybody [D] let's rock, ba ba ba ba do ba da do ba
[A] Everybody in the [G] wholesale block
[D] Was dancing to the jailhouse rock
There's a man in New Orleans plays the rock
He's a guitar man with a great big soul
He lays down a beat like a tom and roll
He goes by the name of King Creole
You [G] know he's gone gone gone
Jumping like a catfish [D] on a pole
[A] You know he's gone gone gone
[G] That a hip-shakin' King [D] Creole
Ba ba ba ba ba do ba da do ba
Adam Murphy played the tenor saxophone
Little Joe was blowing on the slide drum
The drummer for four million dollars went crap-a-wing
The whole rhythm section was the purple gang
[G] Let's rock, ba ba ba ba do ba da do ba
Everybody [D] let's rock, ba ba ba ba do ba da do ba
[F#m] Everybody in the wholesale [G] block
[D] Was dancing to the jailhouse rock
[A] Noel he sings a song [D] about a quoted hope
He sings a song about a jelly rose
He sings a song about a fork and drink
He will some blues about New Orleans
You [G] know he's gone gone gone
Jumping like a catfish [D] on a pole
[A] You know he's gone gone gone
