Peaked at #42 - 7/73
Gonna write a little letter gonna mail it to me local DJ
It's a jumpin little record I want my jockey to play
Roll over Beethoven, gotta hear it again today

My temperature's risin, the juke box's blowin a fuse
My heart's beatin a rhythm, singin out rhythm and blues
Roll over Beethoven, they're rockin in two by two

Well if you feel you like it, go get your lover and reel and rock it
Roll it over and move on up now, go for cover and reel and rock it
Roll it over, roll over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky the news

Early in the mornin I'm a givin you the warnin
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Hey diddle diddle gonna play my fiddle
I ain't got nothing to lose
Roll over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky the news

She wiggles like a glow-worm, dances like a spinning top
She got a crazy partner, you should have seen her reel and rock
Long as she got a dime, the music will never stop

Well if you feel you like it, go get your lover and reel and rock it
Roll it over and move on up now, go for cover and reel and rock it
Roll it over, roll over Beethoven, dig these rhythm and blues

Roll over Beethoven, roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven, roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven, dig these rhythm and blues
