Twenty Flight Rock (1956 Recording) - Eddie Cochran

Oh, I’ve got a girl with a record machine

When it comes to rockin' she’s a queen

Love to dance on a Saturday night

All alone, I can hold her tight

But she lives on a twentieth floor up town

The elevator’s broken down

So I climbed one, two flight, three flight, four

Five, six, seven flight, about eight flight more

On the twelfth I started to drag

By the fifteenth floor I’m ready to sag

Get to the top, But I’m too tired to rock

She called me up on the telephone

She said c’mon over, Cause I’m all alone

I said baby, you’re mighty sweet

But I’m in the bed with a-achin' feet

This went on for a couple of days

(But I) But I couldn’t stay away

So I claimed two, three, four

Five, six, seven flight, about eight flight more

On the twelfth I’m starting to drag

By the fifteenth floor I ready to sag

Get to the top, But I’m too tired to rock

Sent to Glasgow for repairs

'Till it’s fixed I’m using the stairs

I hope they hurry up before it’s too late

Because I don’t want my baby too much to wait

All this climbin' is gettin' me down

You’ll find my corpse draped over the rail

But I climbed two, three, four

Five, six, seven flight, about eight flight more

On the twelfth I’m starting to drag

By the fifteenth floor I ready to sag

Get to the top, But I’m too tired to rock

Yeah, I climbed two, three, four

Five, six, seven flight, about eight flight more

On the twelfth I’m starting to drag

By the fifteenth floor I ready to sag

Get to the top, but I’m too tired

Get to the top, but I’m too tired

Get to the top, but I’m too tired to rock
