When clock strikes two, and three and four,
if the band slows down, we’ll yell for more.
We’re gon-na rock around the clock to night.
We’re gon-na rock, rock, rock, till broad day light.
We’re gon-na rock around the clock to night.

When the chimes ring five and six and sev’n,
We’ll be rock in up in seventh heav’n.
We’re gon-na rock around the clock to night.
We’re gon-na rock, rock, rock, till broad day light.
We’re gon-na rock around the clock to night.

When it’s eight, nine, ten, eleven too,
I’ll be go in strong and so will you.
We’re gon-na rock around the clock to night.
We’re gon-na rock, rock, rock, till broad day light.
We’re gon-na rock gon-na rock aroundthe clock to night.

When the clock strikes twelve, we’ll cool off, then,
start a rock in round the clock a gain.
We’re gon-na rock around the clock to night.
We’re gon-na rock, rock, rock, till broad day light.
We’re gon-na rock, gon-na rock around the clock to night.
