C7
G7
Your Mama don't dance and your Daddy don't rock n' roll

D7                                               C7
When evenin' rolls around and it's time to go to town

                     G7
where do you go        to rock and roll

the old folks say that you gotta end your day by ten
if you're out on a date and you bring it home late, it's a sin
there just ain't no excuse and you know you're gonna lose and never win
I'll say it again, (spoken)And it's all because ......  (repeat verse 1
then bridge)

Bb-C*                        Bb-C*
you pull into a drive-in and find as place to park

Bb-C*                              Bb-C*
you hop into the back seat where you know it's nice and dark.

Bb-C*                                 Bb-C*
you're just about to move in, you're thinkin' it's a breeze

Bb-C*                                             Bb-C*
there's a light in your eye and then a guy says

(spoken) "Out of the car, long hair"

D7                     C7                              G
oo-wee, you're comin' with me, the local police

(spoken) and it's all because..... (repeat verse 1 again then end with)

G
Where do you go     to rock and roll (3 times. end on G7)
