Twenty Flight Rock Lyrics

Well I got a girl with a record machine
When it comes to rocking she's a queen.
I took her to a dance on a saturday night
All alone where I can hold her tight.
She lives on the twentieth floor uptown …The elevator's broken down

And I walk one, two flight, three flight four
Five six seven flight, eight flight more.
Up on the twelfth I'm starting to drag-Fifteenth floor I'm ready to sag
I get to the top-and I'm too tired to rock

You know she called me up on the telephone
Said come on ever baby 'cause I'm all alone
I said baby you're mighty sweet-But I'm in bed with aching feet
This went on for a couple of days- But I just couldn't stay away

And I walk one, two flight, three flight four
Five six seven flight, eight flight more.
Up on the twelfth I'm starting to drag-Fifteenth floor I'm ready to sag
I get to the top-and I'm too tired to rock

Well it was sent to Chicago for repairs-Till it's fixed I'm using the stairs
I hope they hurry, before it's too late-I want my baby too much to wait
All this climbing is getting me down
They'll find my corpse drapped hanging over the rail

And I walk one, two flight, three flight four
Five six seven flight, eight flight more.
Up on the twelfth I'm starting to drag-Fifteenth floor I'm ready to sag
I get to the top-and I'm too tired to rock

There you have it. I hope the info here on my Twenty Flight Rock chords and lyrics page was helpful. Feel free to share this page on social media.
