Please Mr Mayor don't ban rock'n'roll
Please Mr Mayor don't ban rock'n'roll
There's a rythm that'll send me and a beat that'll move my soul
Please Mr Mayor let those records play
Please Mr Mayor let those records play
It was enough to make me happy and clap my blues away
Now they had the charlston when you were young
You all know how the dance was done
You ate the big apple and the jelly roll
All I wanna do is rock'n'stroll
Oh please Mr Mayor don't let the music stop
Oh please Mr Mayor don't take away the rock
Because without that backbeat my life is just a flum
[SOLO]
Please Mr Mayor let those records play
Please Mr Mayor let those records play
It was enough to make me happy and clap my blues away
Now constant music just leaves me cold
Ain't no beat there I can't stroll
Dancing to the ballet is kind of tough
Give me a treat and I'll strut my stuff
Please Mr Mayor don't ban rock'n'roll
Please Mr Mayor don't ban rock'n'roll
There's a rythm that'll send me and a beat that'll move my soul
Please Mr Mayor, please Mr Mayor, please Mr Mayor
Please Mr Mayor, please Mr Mayor, please Mr Mayor
Please Mr Mayor, please Mr Mayor, please Mr Mayor
