“THE HISTORY of ROCK n ROLL” Words and Music by Daniel T. Pray SR. July 1971 Standard 12 Bar Blues in key of E ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VERSE 1. There’s a certain kind of music, got a driving beet. Comes on steady makes you loosen you feet. Keeps getting stronger till it fills the air, Got your whole body dancing from your toes to your hair. CHORUS Makes your Papa want ta rock, and your Mama want to rock n roll, 24 bar instromental ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VERSE 2. We got all kinds of music in this big old world. You can Boggy Wooggy, or you can sing Blues. We got folk music Jazz, pop and all the rest, But Rock n Roll music I know it’s the best. CHORUS Oh your Papa’s gona rock and your Mama’s gona rock n roll, 24 bar instrumental ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VERSE 3. They said when it got started taws only a fad, but twenty years later it still wasn’t dead. It started in the forties and it’s still going strong. It was here when I got here and be here when I’m gone. CHORUS Oh your Papa’s gona rock and your Mama’s gona rock n roll. 24 bar instrumental Oh your Papa’s gona rock and your Mama’s gona rock n roll. 2,3,4 END
