Shoop-bop, shoop-bop
Shoop-bop, shoop-bop

My mama told me she didn't like that rock and roll
I said, "Please, mama, please, mama
You just don't know I don't want
(Shoop-bop, shoop-bop)"

"Hang up my rock and roll shoes
You know I get that feelin'
Every time I hear those blues
(Shoop-bop, shoop-bop)"

That music's got a beat that will keep you alive
The kids are rock and rollin' from 8 to 25
I don't want
(Shoop-bop, shoop-bop)

Hang up my rock and roll shoes
Because I get that feelin'
Every time I hear those blues
(Shoop-bop, shoop-bop)

Yes, I will do my homework
Clean the yard every day
Yes, I will wipe those dishes
I'll do anything you say

They say that rock and roll will soon fade away

I don't want
(Shoop-bop, shoop-bop)

Hang up my rock and roll shoes
(Shoop-bop, shoop-bop)
Because my feet start movin'
Every time I hear those blues
(Shoop-bop, shoop-bop)

Let's rock
Let's roll

They say that rock and roll will soon fade away
No matter what they say, rock and roll is here to stay
I don't want
(Shoop-bop, shoop-bop)

Hang up my rock and roll shoes
(Shoop-bop, shoop-bop)
Because I get that feelin'
Every time I hear those blues

Because my feet start movin'
Every time I hear those blues

Willis adopted the name Chuck (in lieu of Harold) as a stage handle, and received his early training singing at YMCA-sponsored "Teenage Canteens"1 in Atlanta and fronting the combos of local bandleaders.
