One, two, three o’clock, four o’clock, rock,
Five, six, seven o’clock, eight o’clock, rock,
Nine, ten, eleven o’clock, twelve o’clock, rock,
We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight!
Put your glad rags on, and join me hon,
We’ll have some fun when the clock strikes one,
We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight,
We’re gonna rock, rock, rock, 'til broad daylight,
We’re gonna rock, gonna rock, around the clock tonight.
When the clock strikes two, threee, and four,
If the band slows down we’ll yell for more,
We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight,
We’re gonna rock, rock, rock, 'til broad daylight,
We’re gonna rock, gonna rock, around the clock tonight.
(guitar solo no. 1)
When the chimes ring five, six, and seven,
We’ll be right in seventh heaven,
We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight,
We’re gonna rock, rock, rock, 'til broad daylight,
We’re gonna rock, gonna rock, around the clock tonight.
When it’s eight, nine, ten, eleven too,
It’ll be going strong and so will you,
We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight,
We’re gonna rock, rock, rock, 'til broad daylight,
We’re gonna rock, gonna rock, around the clock tonight.
(guitar solo no. 2)
When the clock strikes twelve, we’ll cool off then,
Start a rockin; 'round the clock again,
We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight,
We’re gonna rock, rock, rock, 'til broad daylight,
We’re gonna rock, gonna rock, around the clock tonight.
