You better open up, honey
It's your lover boy me that's a knockin'
You better listen to me, sugar
All the cats are at the High School rockin'

Honey, get your boppin' shoes
Before the juke box blows a fuse
Got everbody hoppin', everybody boppin'
Boppin' at the High School Hop
Boppin' at the High School Hop
Shakin' at the High School Hop

I've rollin' at the High School Hop
I've been movin' at the High School Hop
Everybody's hoppin', everybody's boppin'
Boppin' at the High School Hop

Come on little baby, gonna rock a little bit tonight
Woo, I got get with you, sugar, gonna shake things up tonight
Check out the heart beatin' rhythm
'Cause my feet are moving smooth and light

Boppin' at the High School Hop
Shakin' at the High School Hop
Rollin' at the High School Hop
Movin' at the High School Hop

Everybody's hoppin' just a boppin' just a boppin'
Come on little baby let me give a piece
Good news, good news, good news
Jerry Lee is going to rock away all his blues
My hearts beatin' rhythm and my soul is singin' the blues
Ooh, boppin' at the High School Hop

Shakin' at the High School Hop
Rollin' at the High School Hop
Gettin' it at the High School Hop
Everybody's hoppin' everybody's boppin'
Boppin' at the High School Hop
