Samuel’s Musicians Of The Week

This week the award goes to Bill Haley and His Comets (aka Bill Haley and The Comets).

I nearly made “See You Later, Alligator” the feature song, but ended up choosing the blatantly obvious song, “Rock Around The Clock”.

For those who are wondering why this has taken so long to appear, I wrote it last night and accidentally clicked “Save” instead of “Publish”. Better late than never!

One, Two, Three O’clock, Four O’clock rock,
Five, Six, Seven O’clock, Eight O’clock rock.
Nine, Ten, Eleven O’clock, Twelve O’clock rock,
We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight.

Put your glad rags on and join me hon’,
We’ll have some fun when the clock strikes one.

We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight,
We’re gonna rock, rock, rock, ’till broad daylight,
We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight.

When the clock strikes two, three and four,
If the band slows down we’ll yell for more.

We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight,
We’re gonna rock, rock, rock, ’till broad daylight,
We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight.

When the chimes ring five, six, and seven,
We’ll be right in seventh heaven.

We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight,
We’re gonna rock, rock, rock, ’till broad daylight,
We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight.

When it’s eight, nine, ten, eleven too,
I’ll be goin’ strong and so will you.

We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight,
We’re gonna rock, rock, rock, ’till broad daylight,
We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight.

When the clock stikes twelve we’ll cool off then,
Start rockin’ ’round the clock again.

We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight,
We’re gonna rock, rock, rock, ’till broad daylight,
We’re gonna rock around the clock tonight.
