Crocodile rock [1972]

I remember when rock was yo-o-oung...
Me and Suzie had so much fu-u-un 
Holding hands and skimming stones, 
Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own.

But the biggest kick I ever go-o-ot 
Was doing a thing called the Crocodile Ro-ock,
While the other kids were rocking 'round the clock, 
We were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock.

Well! Crocodile Rocking is something shocking 
When your feet just can't keep still,
I never knew me a better time 
And I guess I never will.
Au, lawdy mama! Those Friday nights 
When Suzie wore her dresses tight and 
The Crocodile Rocking was o-o-out of sa-a-a-aight!

(La-, la-la-la-la-la-, la-la-la-la-la-, la-la-la-la-la-)

But the years went by and the rock just died,
Suzie went and left us for some foreign guy, 
Long nights crying by the record machi-ine 
Dreaming of the Chevy and my old blue jeans.

But they'll never kill the thrills we've go-o-ot 
Burning up to the Crocodile Ro-ock,
Learning fast as the weeks went pa-ast
We really thought the Crocodile Rock would last!

Well! Crocodile Rocking is something shocking 
When your feet just can't keep still,
I never knew me a better time 
And I guess I never will.
Au, lawdy mama! Those Friday nights 
When Suzie wore her dresses tight and 
The Crocodile Rocking was o-o-out of sa-a-a-aight!
