Just got back from the downtown palais
Where the music was so sweet
It knocked me right back in the alley
I'm ready, yea, yea, yea, I'm ready,
Wo, wo, wo, I'm ready
And I'm really gonna rock tonight.
Sweet little lady sings like a songbird
And she sings the opera like you ain't never heard
But she ain't ready,
No, no, no, she ain't ready
No, no, no, she ain't ready,
And she ain't gonna rock & roll
Chorus:
She's sweet on Wagner,
I think she'd die for Beethoven,
She loves the way Puccini layes down a tune,
And Verdi's always creeping from her room
Come on I'll show you how to sing the blues
Now baby, come on over you got nothin' to lose
Are you ready, hey, hey, hey, are you ready
Ooh, ooh, ooh, are you ready
I wanna show you how to rock and roll
Now listen here baby she said to me
Just meet me at the opera house at quarter to three.
'Cos I'm ready, yea, yea, yea, I'm ready,
Woo, hoo, hoo, I'm ready,
I'm gonna show you how to sing the blues
Chorus: Repeat
(Far, far away, the music is playing)
Yea, we were reelin' and rockin' all through the night
Yea, we were rockin' at the opera house until the break of light
And the orchestra was playin' all Chuck Berry's greatest tunes
And the singers in the corner saw us get off on singin' blues
And as the night grew older, everybody watched us run
The people on the streets came runnin' in to join in song
To see the opera singer singin' rock and roll so pure
I thought I saw the mayor there, but I wasn't really sure
But it's alright
