(I Want A) Rock And Roll Guitar
Johnny Preston

A ho, ho, ho

It was the night before Christmas and everything was real quiet

So I thought I´d take myself a little walk at Christmas Eve Night

I was making it on down the street, when to my surprise I saw this

Little bitty cat with big old tears in his eyes


Now I could see he was standing in front of this music store

And looked real brought down

I could hear what he was saying

He didn´t know I was around, he say


I want a rock 'n' roll guitar

With a big bass string

I want a rock 'n' roll guitar

So I can play the thing


I wanna be on TV

Like a rock 'n' roll star

I want Santa Claus to bring me

A rock 'n' roll guitar


So-a I walked over to him-a 'cause I understand

I, I thought I'd cheer him up, so I say, Look a-here little man

A, you don't want no rock 'n' roll guitar

You want a six gun like the Lone Ranger has


So you can run around saying,

'A hi ho Silver, Kemosabe and all that cowboy jazz'


Or how would you like old Santa to bring you

A little dump truck so you could go around a-dumping thing?

And he say, Man, I don´t want no dump truck

I want something that swings, he say


I want a rock 'n' roll guitar

With a big bass string

I want a rock 'n' roll guitar

So I can play the thing


I wanna be on TV

Like a rock 'n' roll star

I want Santa Claus to bring me

A rock 'n' roll guitar


Ha, ha, wait a minute there, wait a minute, hold on

Hold on I say, I say, Hold on there little fellow

Ah, why don't you be like the little chicks and cats

And wish for a space helmet or a rocket ship or something wild like that?


And you know what he say? He say, Look here Dad, I

Don't want no plane or no train or nothing square like that

That ain't the lick for me, when I awake this whole place is gonna shake

'Cause you know what I want under my Christmas tree!, he say


I want a rock 'n' roll guitar

With a big bass string

I want a rock 'n' roll guitar

So I can play the thing


I wanna be on TV

Like a rock 'n' roll star

I want Santa Claus to bring me

A rock 'n' roll guitar


Ho, ho, ho

Crazy little fellow, crazy

Yeah, say
