Rock’n Roll Skaters Waltz Songtext
von Simon & Garfunkel

She wore a short velvet skirt and the brightest red tights
She bumped into me it was love at first sight
Bare arm in arm we were skating so nice
My first time in love, her first on ice

We went rocking and rolling the ol′ skaters waltz
Sliding and gliding the ol' skaters waltz
Our hearts were in rhyme as our feet kept in time to the rock and roll skaters waltz


She wore a turtle neck sweater and bells on her skates
She had the figure to do figure 8
We were beginners and scared as can be
I held on to her, she held on to me

We went rocking and rolling the ol′ skaters waltz
Sliding and gliding the ol' skaters waltz
Our hearts were in rhyme as our feet kept in time to the rock and roll skaters waltz

She wore a little fur hat with the pam pam on top
One look at her and my heart went to plap
Cherry red lips and the brightest blue eyes
Cute as a button and just the right size


We went rocking and rolling the ol' skaters waltz
Sliding and gliding the ol′ skaters waltz
Our hearts were in rhyme as our feet kept in time to the rock and roll skaters waltz
To the rock and roll skaters waltz
