I remember when rock was young me and had so much fun holding hands and skimming stones, had an old gold Chevy and a of my own. But the biggest kick I ever got was doin' a thing called the Crocodile Rock, while the other kids were Rcking Round The Clock we were hopping bopping to the Crocodile Rock.
Well, Crocodile Rockin' was something shocking when your feet just can't keep still. I never knew me a better time and I guess I will. Oh, Lawdy Mama, those Friday nights when Susie wore her dresses tight and the Crocodile Rocking was out of sight.
La la-la-la-la la, la-la-la-la la, la-la-la-la-la
But the years went by and the just died, Susie went and left us for some foreign guy. Long nights crying by the record machine, dreaming of my and my old blue jeans. But they'll never kill the thrills we got, burning up to the Crocodile learning fast as the weeks went past. We really thought that Crocodile Rock would last.
