Sweet Little Rock & Roller Lyrics

Yeah, nine years old and sweet as she can be
All dressed up like a downtown Christmas tree
Dancin’ and hummin' a rock’n’roll melody
She's the daughter of a well-respected man
Who taught her to judge and understand
Since she became a rock’n’roll music fan

Sweet little rock'n'roller
Sweet little rock'n'roller
Her daddy don’t have to scold her
Her partner can’t hardly hold her
Her partner can’t hardly hold her
She never gets any older
Sweet little rock’n’roller

Should have seen her eyes when the band began to play
And the famous singer sang and bowed away
When the star performed she screamed and yelled "Hooray!"

Ten thousand eyes were watchin’ him leave the floor
Five thousand tongues were screamin’ more and more
And about fifteen hundred people waitin’ outside the door

Sweet little rock'n'roller
Sweet little rock'n'roller
Sweet little rock'n'roller
Sweet little rock'n'roller
Sweet little rock'n'roller
Sweet little rock'n'roller
Sweet little rock'n'roller

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
