Текст песни: Story of the Rockers + перевод

It started out with Haley’s Comets

A-rockin' round the clock

Well, then along came Presley

With some hillbilly rock now

Mix it in with Carl Perkins

Chuck Berry when he’s workin'

And Little Richard out of Macon

Inspired Jerry Lee to shakin'

Slow down the tempo with the Fat Man

Bring back the rhythm with Bo’s band

Don and Phil and Eddie Cochran

And Buddy Holly kept a-rockin'

And that’s the story of the rockers

Yeah, who kept on dancin'

Everybody was movin'

And it looked so fine

Yeah, you could feel the emotion

As you looked around

Sock it to me, rockers

Roll it down the line

Jump back down to Philly

For a daily Bandstand Rock

At The Hop with Danny’s Juniors

The Stroll was very hot, now

Rydell, Cannon and Dion sang

While Eddy’s Rebels twanged on

Well, soon the world a-started twistin'

With the Checker dance

The Four Seasons sang Sherry

While Barry Gordy shopped the Champs

Ike and Tina and a-Uncle Ray

Along with Shannon’s Runaway

And that’s the story of the rockers

Who kept us dancin'

Everybody was movin'

And it felt so fine

Yeah, you could feel the emotion

As you looked around

Sock it to me, rockers

Roll it down the line

The West Coast started surfin'

With the Beach Boy band

Jan and Dean and the Surfaris

Spread the songs throughout the land

And soon the Beatles from a-Liverpool

Electrified, began to rule

Roll out the Stones with Satisfaction

Mix in a bit of blues reaction

Byrds and Spoonful got in motion

With their lit up good time notion

Otis Redding and Revue

Young Rascals attitude

And that’s the story of the rockers

Yeah, who kept us dancin'

Everybody was movin'

And it felt so fine

Yeah, you could feel the emotion

As you looked around

Sock it to me, rockers

Roll it down the line

Hear me now

Chuck Willis, Lord Old Sam Cooke

Sock it to me, yeah

Buddy Knox, Jimmy Bowen, Lloyd Price

Hey don’t touch that dial, I ain’t through

I forgot somebody

Bobby Darin, Larry Williams, The Blue Caps

Here we go
