A [lead guitar repeats intro riff]
Back beat boogie got a hold on me, make me wanna jump and shout

Twisting like a top, I never want to stop tonight

A [lead guitar repeats intro riff]
I'm a rocker, I'm a roller
I been a-boogieing since I ditched the stroller
E A
So come on hold me tight
D E A [1st repeat: E]
And we can rock the night away
Verse 2:
Tight booted teenie with the smiling face
Make me want to smile and shake
Come on out today and shimmy like a rattlesnake
[repeat chorus]
Bridge:
D
I get this feeling when I hear that beat
A
I gotta jump and get up on the table
D
'Cause when that rhythm and blues electrifies my shoes

I get the message like it came by cable (Hey!)
