Well, you can act like a monkey

Shake your hands, do the limbo till you can't stand

Well, you can mash your potato, hippy hippy shake

But the beats still wild and your feet still ache

I say, it's just another name for rock and roll, everybody, everybody sing

It's just another name for rock and roll, rock and roll

Well, you can do the duck, walk your dog

Down the street, loop the loop to a swingin' beat

You can twist and shout and do the stomp

A chase a chicken on a pony romp but

It's just another name for rock and roll, everybody everybody sing

It's just another name for rock and roll, rock and roll

Well, they all try to shake it another way

But they rock, they roll just the same

They only call it by another name

And I don't care what they say

Down in the jungle where the tree tops are steep

They get the fever for a bongo beat, they do the ubangie stomp

The safari hop, do the monkey until they drop

But it's just another name for rock and roll everybody, everybody sing

It's just another name for rock and roll everybody, everybody sing

It's just another name for rock and roll everybody, everybody sing
