Just let me hear some of that rock and roll music
Any old way you choose it
It’s got a back beat, you can’t lost it,
Any old time you use it
It’s gotta be rock roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me
I’ve got no kick against modern jazz
Unless they try to play it too darn fast
And change the beauty of the melody
Until they sound just like a symphony
That’s why I go for that that rock and roll music
Any old way you choose it
It’s got a back beat, you can’t lost it,
Any old time you use it
It’s gotta be rock roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me
I took my loved one over ‘cross the tracks
So she can hear my man awail a sax
I must admit they have a rockin’ band
Man, they were goin’ like a hurrican’
That’s why I go for that that rock and roll music
Any old way you choose it
It’s got a back beat, you can’t lost it,
Any old time you use it
It’s gotta be rock roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me
Way down South they gave a jubilee
The jokey folks they had a jamboree
They’re drinkin’ home brew from a water cup
The folks dancin’ got all shook up
And started playin’ that that rock and roll music
Any old way you choose it
It’s got a back beat, you can’t lost it,
Any old time you use it
It’s gotta be rock roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me
Don’t care to hear ‘em play a tango
I’m in the mood to gear a mambo
It’s way to early for a congo
So keep a rockin’ that piano
So I can gear some of that
Rock and roll music
Any old way you choose it
It’s got a back beat, you can’t lost it,
Any old time you use it
It’s gotta be rock roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me

“Rock and Roll Music” es una canción originalmente escrita y grabada por Chuck Berry, que se convirtió en un super éxito en 1957, alcanzando el lugar N° 8 de los charts de USA. Más tarde este tema se hizo más famoso aún, gracias a los covers hechos por Los Beatles, Los Beach Boys y otros artistas.
La letra de la canción exalta las virtudes del rock and roll en comparación con otros estilos musicales, y expresa la determinación del cantante de solo bailar este estilo de música. La canción ha sido grabada por una serie de renombrados artistas, como Humble Pie, Manic Street Preachers, Bill Haley & The Comets, Alejandro Sanz, Tenpole Tudor, etc.
La versión de Chuck Berry fue la elegida por la revista Rolling Stone para situarse en el N° 128 de las 500 mejores canciones del rock de todos los
tiempos.
Los Beatles tocaron esta canción en muchos de sus shows en Hamburgo, y también en el show de la BBC, Pop Go The Beatles. A fines de 1964, agotados por unas giras sin descando, se deciden a grabar vartios de sus antiguos temas, sus favoritos de rhythm and blues y rock, para terminar su nuevo LP y sacarlo a la venta. Entre los temas elegidos, estaba la canción de Chuck Berry, versión que finalmente se hizo tan conocida y famosa como la original. La voz principal en la versión Beatle fue la de John Lennon. En los EE.UU., el LP fue lanzado bajo el nombre de Beatles’65. El único cambio que Lennon hizo a la letra de la canción fue sustituir la linea “If you wanna rock with me” (Quieres rockear conmigo) por “If you wanna dance with me” (Quieres bailar conmigo).
La versión Beatle de “Rock and Roll Music” se lanzó en muchos paises como single, y encabezó las listas de Noruega y Australia
