C Em
I remember when rock was young me and Susie had so much fun
F
Holding hands and skimmin stones
G
we had an old gold Chevy and a place of our own
C
But the biggest kick I ever got
Em
was doin a thang called the crocodile rock
F
While the other kids were rockin round the clock
G
we were hoppin an boppin to the crocodile rock
[CHORUS]
Am
Well crocodile rockin is something shockin
D7
when your feet just can't keep still
G7 C
I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will
A
Oh lawdy mama those friday nights
D7
when Susie wore her dresses tight
G7 C
and the crocodile rockin was out of sight
C Em F
Laa la la la la laa La la la la laa La la la
G
la laa
C
But the years went by and the rock just died
Em
Susie went and left us for a foreign guy
F
Long nights crying by the record machine
G
dreaming of my Chevy and my old blue jeans
C
But they'll never kill the thrills we got
Em
burning up to the crocodile rock
F
Learning fast as the weeks went past
G
we really thought the crocodile rock would last
[CHORUS]
Am
Well crocodile rockin is something shockin
D7
when your feet just can't keep still
G7 C
I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will
A
Oh lawdy mama those friday nights
D7
when Susie wore her dresses tight
G7 C
and the crocodile rockin was out of sight
C Em F
Laa la la la la laa La la la la laa La la la
