Lyrics

Don’t rock the juke box.

I wan na hear some tunes,

’cause my heart ain’t read y

for the Roll ing Stones.

I don’t feel like (G)rock in’

(C7)since my ba by’s gone.

So don’t rock the juke box,

play me a coun try song.

Be fore you drop that (C7)quar ter,

keep one thing in mind;

you got a heart broke (A7)hill bill y

stand ing here in line.

I’ve been down and lone ly

ev er since I left.

Be fore you punch that (G)num ber,

could I make one re (G)quest?

Don’t rock the juke box.

I wan na hear some tunes,

’cause my heart ain’t read y

for the Roll ing Stones.

I don’t feel like (G)rock in’

(C7)since my ba by’s gone.

So don’t rock the juke box,

play me a coun try song.

Be fore you drop that (C7)quar ter,

keep one thing in mind;

you got a heart broke (A7)hill bill y

stand ing here in line.

I’ve been down and lone ly

ev er since I left.

Be fore you punch that (G)num ber,

could I make one re (G)quest?

Don’t rock the juke Don’t rock the juke play me a coun try song.

Yeah, don’t rock the juke box.

Play me a coun try song.
