Get out in that kitchen and rattle those pots and pans 
Get out in that kitchen and rattle those pots and pans
I want my breakfast 'cause I'm a hungry man


 
I said, Shake, rattle and roll
I said, Shake, rattle and roll
I said, Shake, rattle and roll
I said, Shake, rattle and roll
You never do nothin' to save your doggone soul


 
You're wearin' those dresses, 
your hair done up so nice
You're wearin' those dresses, 
your hair done up so nice
You look so warm but your heart is cold as ice

(instrumental; same pattern as chorus)

I said, Shake, rattle and roll
I said, Shake, rattle and roll
I said, Shake, rattle and roll
I said, Shake, rattle and roll
You never do nothin' to save your doggone soul

 
I'm like a one-eyed cat peepin' in a seafood store
I'm like a one-eyed cat peepin' in a seafood store
I can look at you and tell you don't love me no more

I believed you were doin' me wrong, 
and now I know I believed you were doin' me wrong, 
and now I know The more I work, the faster my money goes


I said, Shake, rattle and roll
I said, Shake, rattle and roll
I said, Shake, rattle and roll
I said, Shake, rattle and roll
You never do nothin' to save your doggone soul

Shake, rattle and roll!
