Crocodile rockElton John
Music/Elton John, Lyric/Bernie Taupin

I remember when rock was young
Me and Suzie had so much fun
Holding hands and skimming 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 Rocking round the clock
We were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock

Well Crocodile Rocking is something shocking
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 Rocking 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 crying by the record machine
Dreaming 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

鳄鱼摇滚　艾尔顿强


我还记得当摇滚乐年轻时
我和苏西快乐极了
手牵着手，打着水漂儿
我有辆金色的旧雪佛兰和自己的地方
但我做过最炫的事
是叫做"鳄鱼摇滚"那檔事
当别的孩子跳着"随时钟摇滚"这首曲子
我们随着鳄鱼摇滚又跳又叫

"鳄鱼摇滚"是颇吓唬人的玩意儿
当你的双脚一直停不下来
我从来没这么快乐过，我想以后也不会了
噢！劳蒂妈妈和那些周五夜晚
当苏西穿上紧身洋装
"鳄鱼摇滚"也消失不见了

时光荏苒，摇滚已死
苏西为了几个外国佬离我们而去
漫漫长夜只能伴着电唱机哭泣
梦见我的雪佛兰和旧牛仔裤
但这都无法消除我们内心的恐惧
在鳄鱼摇滚中燃烧
一个个礼拜过去了，我们早已得到教训
我们曾真的以为鳄鱼摇滚可以流传下去

Rocking round the clock是摇滚乐非常早期的一首歌。
