Crocodile Rock - Elton John (1973)

I remember when rock was young, me and Suzie had so much fun

Holding hands and skimming stones

Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own

But the biggest kick I ever got

was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock

While the other kids were Rocking 'Round The Clock,

we were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock

Well, Crocodile Rocking is something shocking when your feet just can't keep still

I never knew me a better time

and I guess I never will

Oh lawdy mama, those Friday nights

when Suzie wore her dresses tight and the

Crocodile Rocking was out of sight

But the years went by and the rock just died

Suzie went and left us for some foreign guy

Long nights crying by the record machine

Dreaming of the Chevy and my old blue jeans

But they'll never kill the thrills we've got

burning up to the Crocodile Rock

Learning fast as the weeks went past

We really thought the Crocodile Rock would last

Well, Crocodile Rocking is something shocking when your feet just can't keep still

I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will

Oh lawdy mama, those Friday nights

when Suzie wore her dresses tight and the

Crocodile Rocking was out of sight

I remember when rock was young,

me and Suzie had so much fun

Holding hands and skimming stones

Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own

But the biggest kick I ever got

was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock

While the other kids were Rocking 'Round The Clock,

we were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock

Well, Crocodile Rocking is something shocking when your feet just can't keep still

I never knew me a better time

and I guess I never will

Oh lawdy mama, those Friday nights when Suzie wore her dresses tight and the

Crocodile Rocking was out of sight
