Sides face grand square
What's the matter with the clothes I'm wearing?
Can't you tell that your tie's too wide?
Maybe I should buy some old tab collars?
Welcome back to the age of jive
Left allemande, you do a dosado
Left allemande and then promenade you know
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me

Heads square thru four hands you go
Around that corner lady dosado
Swing thru and then the boys run right
Half tag scoot back and go
Boys run right you slide thru and then
Swing the corner, promenade my friend
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me

Sides face grand square
What's the matter with the car I'm driving?
Can't you tell that it's out of style?
Should I get a set of white wall tires?
Are you going to cruise the Miracle Mile?
Left allemande, you do a dosado
Left allemande and then promenade
Hot funk, cool punk, even if it's old junk
It's still rock and roll to me

Sides face grand square
What's the matter with the crowd I'm seeing?
Don't you know that they're out of touch?
Should I try to be a straight "A" student?
If you are, then you think too much
Left allemande, you do a dosado
Left allemande and then promenade you know
Next phase, new wave, dance craze any way
It's still rock and roll to me
Swing
