Lyrics of Roll Over Beethoven - Single Version by Chuck Berry

verse

Well, I'ma write a little letter
I'm gonna mail it to my local DJ
Yeah, it's a jumping little record
I want my jockey to play
Roll over Beethoven
I gotta hear it again today

verse

You know my temperature's rising
The jukebox blowing a fuse
My heart's beating rhythm
And my soul keep a-singing the blues
Roll over Beethoven
Tell Tchaikovsky the news

verse

I got the rocking pneumonia
I need a shot of rhythm and blues
I caught the rolling arthritis
Sitting down at a rhythm revue
Roll over Beethoven
They rocking in two by two

verse

Well, if you feel and like it
Go get your lover, then reel and rock it
Roll it over then move on up just
A trifle further and reel and rock with one another
Roll over Beethoven
Dig these rhythm and blues

verse

Well, early in the morning, I'm giving you my warning
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Hey diddle diddle, I'ma play my fiddle
Ain't got nothing to lose
Roll over Beethoven
And tell Tchaikovsky the news

verse

You know she wiggle like a glow-worm
Dance like a spinnin' top
She got a crazy partner
You oughta see him reel and rock
Long as she got a dime
The music won't never stop

outro

Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven and dig these rhythm and blues
Writer(s): Chuck Berry
