Songtexte: Twisted Sister. Live At Hammersmith. Jailhouse rock.

:
[jerry leiber/mike stoller]

warden threw a party in the county jail
prison band plays, they began to wail
band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing
should've heard those knocked out jailbirds sing

[chorus:]

let's rock
everybody let's rock
everybody in the whole cell block
dancin' to a jailhouse rock

shifty henry said, for the heaven's sake
no one lookin', now our chance to make a break
bugs turned to shifty, said nix nix
gonna stick around, gonna get my kicks

[repeat chorus]

number forty zero said to number three
you're the cutest jailbird i ever did see
sure i'd be delighted with your company
come on and do the jailhouse cock with me

[repeat chorus]

[solo - left: jay jay, right: eddie]

sad sack was sittin' on a block of stone
over in the floor weepin' all alone
warden said, hey buddy, don'tcha be no square
can't find a partner, fuck a wooden chair

[repeat chorus]

shifty henry said, for the heaven's sake
no one lookin', now our chance to make a break
bugs turned to shifty, said nix nix
gonna stick around, i wanna get my kicks

[repeat chorus]

dancin' to a jailhouse rock
dancin' to a jailhouse rock
dancin' to a jailhouse rock
dancin' to a jailhouse rock
everybody in the whole cell block
dancin' to a jailhouse rock
everybody in the whole cell block
said, a-dancin' to a jailhouse rock
