I'm gonna write a little letter
Mail it to my local DJ
Yeah it's a rocking little record
I want my jockey to play
Roll over Beethoven, I gotta hear it again today

You know my temperature's rising
The jukebox blowing a fuse
My heart's beating rhythm
And my soul keep a-singing the blues
Roll over Beethoven
Tell Tchaikovsky the news

I got the rocking pneumonia
I need a shot of rhythm and blues
I caught the rolling arthritis
Sitting down at a rhythm revue
Roll over Beethoven
They rocking in two by two

Well, if you feel it, like it
Go get your lover, then reel and rock it
Roll it over then move on up just
A trifle further and reelin', rockin', rollin' over
Roll over Beethoven
They rocking in two by two
Early in the morning I'm giving you the warning
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Hey diddle diddle, I'ma play my fiddle
Ain't got nothing to lose
Roll over Beethoven
And tell Tchaikovsky the news

You know she wiggle like a glow worm
Dance like a spinnin' top
She got a crazy partner
Oughta see him 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
