lirik lagu shelley fabares & paul petersen - what did they do before rock n’ roll
say, dad
(mmm, yes kids)
we’d like to have a heart-to-heart talk
(oh-oh, have you spoken to your mother yet?)
no, dad, we wanna ask you
(well, i guess you’re both old enough)
what we wanna know is
what did they do before rock ‘n’ roll? (ah-ha)
how’d they ever make it
bless my soul
all day long they had to listen to (ah-ha)
(my time is your time)
what did they do before elvis p (ah-ha)
fabian and avalon and brenda lee?
all they heard on the radio was
(may the blue of the light, make the buh-buh-buh-boom)
i found some ancient records (ah-doo-wah)
from 1945 (ah-doo-wah)
i put a couple on the phonograph (laughed)
laughed ha-ha-ha-ha ha-ha
oh well, i thought i’d die
now, let me tell you, dad
it was an awful sound
to hear what 27 cats
were puttin’ down
i couldn’t believe my ears
it was a shock to me
’cause all that they were playin’
was the melody
they had a thing called swing
they didn’t have no beat
that rikki-tikki music never move my feet
and then i played your records
strangest thing i heard
i know you’ll think i’m goofy
but i’m pretty swerve
they didn’t tw-ng guitars
i meant like it was sad
and tell me
what’s a hugo winterhalter, dad?
oh well, i felt so poor
for those old time souls (ah-ha)
they never had the benefit
of rock ‘n’ roll
all they heard on the radio was (ah-ha)
(doo-fal-dee-ooh, boop-boop-pee-doo, ooh)
oh, no!
