Roll on, rock on, raw bones
Well, there's still a lot of rhythm in these
Rockin' bones

I wanna leave a happy memory when I go
I wanna leave something to let the whole world know
That the rock in roll daddy has a done passed on
But my bones will keep a-rockin' long after I've gone

Roll on, rock on, raw bones
Well, there's still a lot of rhythm in these
Rockin' bones

Well, when I die don't you bury me at all
Just nail my bones up on the wall
Beneath these bones let these words be seen
This is the bloody gears of a boppin' machine

Roll on, rock on, raw bones
Well, there's still a lot of rhythm in these
Rockin' bones

I ain't a worried about tomorrow, just a-thinkin' 'bout tonight
My bones are gettin' restless, gonna do it up right
A few more times around the hardwood floor
Before we turn off the lights and close the door

Roll on, rock on, raw bones
Well, there's still a lot of rhythm in these
Rockin' bones
