| Up in the mornin', out to school | 
| The teacher is teaching the golden rule | 
| American history, practical math | 
| You’re studying hard and you’re hoping to pass | 
| You’re working your finger right down to the bone | 
| And the guy behind you won’t leave you alone | 
| «Ring, ring», goes the bell | 
| The cook in the kitchen’s ready to sell | 
| But you’re lucky if you can find a seat | 
| You’re fortunate if you get time to eat | 
| Well, back in the classroom, open your books | 
| Ooh, the teacher don’t know how mean she looks | 
| Hail, hail rock and roll | 
| Hail, hail rock and roll | 
| Hail, hail rock and roll | 
| Hail, hail rock and roll | 
| Hail, hail rock and roll | 
| Hail, hail rock and roll | 
| As soon as 3 o’clock rolls around | 
| And ya lay your burden down | 
| Throw down your books and out of your seat | 
| You go down the hallway, into the street | 
| And you’re tryin' to forget just where you been | 
| You find a juke joint, you go in | 
| You drop the coin right into the slot | 
| You gonna have something that’s really hot (like me, girl) | 
| With the one you love, you’re makin' romance | 
| All day long, been wantin' to dance | 
| And ya feel the music from head to toe | 
| It’s round, and round, and round we go | 
| Long live rock and roll (x6) | 
| Rock, rock, rock and roll (x12) |
