One night I was late
Came home from a date
Slipped out of my shoes
At the door
Then from the front room
I heard a jump tune
I looked in
And here's what I saw

There in the night
Was a wonderful scene
Mom was dancing with Dad
To my record machine
And while they danced
Only one thing was wrong
They were trying to waltz
To a rock and roll song!

One, two, and then rock
One, two, and then roll
They did the rock and roll waltz
Rock, two, three, roll, two, three
It looked so cute to me
I love the rock and roll waltz

One, two, and then rock
One, two, and then roll
One, two, and then jump
It's good for your soul
It's old but it's new
Let's do the rock and roll waltz

There in the night
Was a wonderful scene
Mom was dancing with Dad
To my record machine
And while they danced
Only one thing was wrong
They were trying to waltz
To a rock and roll song!

One, two, and then rock
One, two, and then roll
One, two, and then jump
It's good for your soul
It's old but it's new
Let's do the rock and roll waltz

Let's do the rock and roll waltz
