I remember when rock was young Me and Susie had so much fun Holdin’ hands and skimmin’ 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, Lordy Mama, those Friday nights When Susie wore her dresses tight And the Crocodile Rocking was out of the sight
La, la-la-la-la, la La-la-la-la, la La-la-la-la, la
But the years went by and the rock just died Susie went and left us for some foreign guy Long nights cryin’ by the record machine Dreamin’ of my Chevy and my old blue jeans
But they’ll never kill the thrills we 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, Lordy mama, those Friday nights When Susie wore her dresses tight And the Crocodile Rocking was out of the sight
La, la-la-la-la, la La-la-la-la, la La-la-la-la, la
