 Hey, I wanna tell you a story
 It's about the groove
 Alright now, look here
 Hope it makes you move
 And get your rhythm too
 Yeah, oh yeah

 Music for the young and old
 Music revelation, rock and roll and soul

 And there was Little Richard (Tutti Frutti)
 And Elvis too (shook up, shook up, shook up)
 Way back in the '50s (way back, way back, way back)

 So let them play 'cause it's happening today
