 [Verse 1]
 
      G                                    Bm
 I remember when rock was young,    me and Susie had so much fun
         C                                D
 Holding hands and skimmin' stones  had a old gold Chevy & a place of my own
         G                                      Bm
 But the biggest kick I ever got    was doin' a thing called the Crocodile Rock
           C                                                D
 While the other kids were rockin' 'round the clock we were hoppin' and 
 boppin' to the Crocodile Rock, well
 
 
 [Chorus]
 
 Em                                                A7
 Crocodile Rockin' is something shockin' when your feet just can't keep still
 D7                                 G
 I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will.
 E                                        A7
 Oh, Lawdy mamma those Friday nights when Susie wore her dresses tight and
 D7                               C     G  C  G
 the Crocodile Rockin' was out of sight. 
 
 
 [Interlude]

 [Verse 2]
 
         G                                 Bm
 But the years went by and rock just died, Susie went and left me for some foreign guy,
 C                                        D
 Long nights cryin' by the record machine dreamin' of my Chevy & my old blue jeans but they'll
 G                                        Bm
 Never kill the thrills we got    burnin' up to the Crocodile Rock,
          C                                        D
 Learning fast as the weeks went past, we really thought the Crocodile Rock would last, well
 
 
 [Chorus]
