Song lyrics

I remember when rock was young
Me and Suzie had so much fun
Holding 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 rockin’ round the clock
We were hoppin’ and boppin’ to the Crocodile Rock

Well Crocodile Rockin’ is something shockin’
When your feet just can't keep still
I never knew me a better time
And I guess I never will

Oh! Lawdy mama those Friday nights
When Suzie wore her dresses tight
And the Crocodile Rockin’ was out of sight

But the years went by and the rock just died
Suzie 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've got
Burning up to the Crocodile Rock
Learning fast as the weeks went past
We really thought the Crocodile Rock would last








Crocodile Rock (Gnomeo and Juliet Version)*

[Nelly Furtado:]
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
One, two, three, four

I remember when rock was young
Gnomeo and Juliet had so much fun
Holding hands and skimmin' stones
Had an old Punch Buggy and a place of their own

But the biggest kick they ever got
Was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock
While the other kids were rockin' round the clock
They were hoppin' and boppin' to the Crocodile Rock

Eh! Crocodile Rocking is something shocking
When your feet just can't keep still
They never knew me a better time and I guess I never will
Eh! Everybody is feeling right
Because we gonna dance all night
And the Crocodile Rocking just something out of sight
Yeah yeah yeah

La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
One, two, three, four

But the years went by and the rock never died
Juliet went and left Gnomeo for some foreign guy
Gnomeo nights cryin' by the record machine
Dreamin' of my buggy and my old blue jeans

Cause I'll never kill the thrills we've got
Burning up to the Crocodile Rock
Learning fast as the weeks go past
Cause Gnomeo really thought the Crocodile Rock gonna last

[Elton John & Nelly Furtado:]
Eh! Crocodile Rockin' is something shockin'
When your feet just can't keep still
They never knew me a better time and I guess I never will
Eh! Everybody is feelin' right
Because we gonna dance all night
And the Crocodile Rocking just something out of sight
Yeah yeah yeah

[Nelly Furtado:]
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
One, two, three, four

[Elton John:]
Crocodile Rockin'
Crocodile Rockin'
Ohh Rock Rock Rockin' Rockin' Rockin'
