Once upon a time not so very long ago
There wasn't such a thing as a rock 'n roll show
You had to sit at home and listen to the radioThen came a man with a rockin' guitar
Found himself a beat and he played it near and far
Everybody danced and sang and let the good times rollAgain, again, again, again, again, again, again, again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
Again, again, again, again, again, again, again, again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?Traveled round the world in a rock 'n' roll band
He stood there like a child with a guitar in his hand
Everybody danced and sang and let the good times rollNobody cared about the clothes he'd wear
Nobody cared about the color of his hair
Everybody came to see and let the good times rollAgain, again, again, again, again, again, again, again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
Again, again, again, again, again, again, again, again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?Now we got the rhythm, now we got the rock
Time didn't matter, never living by the clock
Everybody came to hear him play his rock 'n rollThen came a line when the music didn't rhyme
Couldn't find the rhythm 'cos he couldn't find the time
Still the people came to listen to the good times rollAgain, again, again, again, again, again, again, again
Why don't we do it, why don't we do it again?
Again, again, again, again, again, again, again, again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?Again, again, again, again, again, again, again, again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
I said, why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
