There was an old woman that lived in a shoe,
had so many children, she didn't know what to do.

They were doin' all right, till she took 'em to town,
C
the kids started pickin' 'em up and puttin' 'em down.
CHORUS:
F
Now, all your children wanna rock, Mama..
C
All your children want to roll.
G7 F
They wanna roll, wanna rock, wanna bop till they pop..
C
All your children wants to rock.
Rock now, go!
#2.

Well, we're not tryin' to live too fast..
And we might as well try to live in class.

We better move out before the rent comes due,
C
cause we wanna live in a blue suede shoe.

Now, all your children wanna rock, Mama..

All your children wants to rock.
Rock now, go!

C
Well, every night when it's quiet and still..
You can hear it echoing through the hill.

From a blue suede shoe on a mountain top..

all of mama's young 'uns are doin' the bop.
CHORUS:
F
Now, all your children wanna rock, Mama..
C
All your children want to roll.
G7 F
They wanna roll, wanna rock, wanna bop till they pop..
C
All your children wants to rock.
Rock now, go!
CHORUS:
F
Now, all your children wanna rock, Mama..

All your children want to roll.

They wanna roll, wanna rock, wanna bop till they pop..
