The Rock and Roll Hop
Words by Jeff Mondak
Music and performance by Sergio Wals
Wiggly toes and wiggly fingers
Sing along with all the singers
Rhythmic sounds that get us dancing
Music, music, it’s entrancing
Magic tones, we’re so excited
Firecrackers all ignited
Energy that’s quickly creeping
On our feet and now we’re leaping
We’re all smiling
We’re all jumping
Arms are waving
Fists are pumping
We’re all smiling
We’re all jumping
Arms are waving
Fists are pumping
Doin’ the rock and roll
Doin’ the rock and roll
Doin’ the rock and roll hop
Racing fast and never stopping
Guitar chords that keep us hopping
Feet are stomping, hands are clapping
Grandpa Stark should not be napping
(regular line is "No one’s grandpa should be napping
Sing so loud the window’s shaking
Richter thinks the earth is quaking
Listen for I speak profoundly
Later we’ll be sleeping soundly
We’re all smiling
We’re all jumping
Arms are waving
Fists are pumping
We’re all smiling
We’re all jumping
Arms are waving
Fists are pumping
Doin’ the rock and roll
Doin’ the rock and roll
Doin’ the rock and roll hop
It’s better than a sugar rush
Or cartoons on TV
It twice as good as being bad
It’s rock and roll for me
We’re all smiling
We’re all jumping
Arms are waving
Fists are pumping
We’re all smiling
We’re all jumping
Arms are waving
Fists are pumping
Doin’ the rock and roll
Doin’ the rock and roll
Doin’ the rock and roll hop
