Lyrics

One, two, three o'clock, four o'clock rock Five, six, seven o'clock, eight o'clock rock Nine, ten, eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock rock We're going to rock around the clock tonight Put your glad rags on and join me, hon We'll have some fun when the clock strikes one We're going to rock around the clock tonight We're going to rock, rock, rock, until broad daylight We're going to rock, going to rock around the clock tonight When the clock strikes two, three, and four If the band slows down we'll yell for more We're going to rock around the clock tonight We're going to rock, rock, rock, until broad daylight We're going to rock, going to rock around the clock tonight When the chimes ring five, six, and seven We'll be right in seventh heaven We're going to rock around the clock tonight We're going to rock, rock, rock, until broad daylight We're going to rock, going to rock around the clock tonight When it's eight, nine, ten, eleven too I'll be going strong and so will you We're going to rock around the clock tonight We're going to rock, rock, rock, until broad daylight We're going to rock, going to rock around the clock tonight When the clock strikes twelve we'll cool off then Start rocking around the clock again We're going to rock around the clock tonight We're going to rock, rock, rock, until broad daylight We're going to rock, going to rock around the clock tonight
