Shake, Rattle and Roll (original) Songtext
von Elvis Presley

Well, get out of that bed
Wash your face and hands
Get out of that bed
Wash your face and hands
Well, get in that kitchen
Make some noise with your pots and pans

I believe it to my soul
You′re the devil in nylon hose
I believe it to my soul
You're the devil in nylon hose
For the harder I work
The faster my money goes

Well I said, "Shake, rattle and roll"
I said, "Shake, rattle and roll"
I said, "Shake, rattle and roll"
I said, "Shake, rattle and roll"
Well you won′t do right
To save your doggone soul
(Shake, rattle and roll)


I'm like a one-eyed cat
Peeping in a seafood store
I'm like a one-eyed cat
Peeping in a seafood store
Well, I can look at you
Tell you ain′t a child no more

I believe you′re doing it wrong
And now I know
I believe you're doing it wrong
And now I know
For the harder I work
The faster my money goes

Well I said, "Shake, rattle and roll"
I said, "Shake, rattle and roll"
I said, "Shake, rattle and roll"
I said, "Shake, rattle and roll"
Well, you won′t do right
To save your doggone soul
Say it again

I went over the hill
Way down underneath
I went over the hill
Way down underneath
You make me roll my eyes
And then you make me grit my teeth


Well I said, "Shake, rattle and roll"
I said, "Shake, rattle and roll"
I said, "Shake, rattle and roll"
I said, "Shake, rattle and roll"
Well you won't do right
To save your doggone soul
