I remember when rock was young, me and Suzy had so much fun Holdin' hands and skimmin' stones, had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own But the biggest kick I ever got, was doin' 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', a song to shout to when your feet just can't keep still I never knew me a better time, and I guess I never will I'm the lonely mother of Friday nights, when Suzy won't take their time The Crocodile Rockin' from the other side But the years went by, and the rock just died Suzy 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 that never killed the thrills we got Burnin' up to the Crocodile Rock Learnin' fast as the weeks went past We really thought the Crocodile Rock would last Well, Crocodile Rockin', a song to shout to when your feet just can't keep still I never knew me a better time, and I guess I never will I'm the lonely mother of Friday nights, when Suzy won't take their time The Crocodile Rockin' from the other side I remember when rock was young Me and Suzy had so much fun Holdin' hands and skimmin' stones Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own But the biggest gig I ever got Was doin' a thing called the Crocodile Rock While the other kids were rockin' the Crocodile Rock While the other kids were rockin' down the clock We were hoppin' and bobbin' to the Crocodile Rock Well, Crocodile Rockin', a song to shout to when your feet just can't keep still I never knew me a better time, and I guess I never will I'm the lonely mother of Friday nights, when Suzy won't take their time The Crocodile Rockin' from the other side The Crocodile Rock
