Crocodile rock  Elton John
Music/Elton John, Lyric/Bernie Taupin

I remember when rock was young
Me and Suzie had so much fun
Holding hands and skimming stones
Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own
But the biggest kick I ever got
Was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock
While the other kids were Rocking round the clock
We were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock

Well Crocodile Rocking is something shocking
When your feet just can't keep still
I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will
Oh Lawdy mama, those Friday nights
When Suzie wore her dresses tight
And the Crocodile Rocking was out of sight

But the years went by and the rock just died
Suzie went and left us for some foreign guy
Long nights crying by the record machine
Dreaming of my Chevy and my old blue jeans
But they'll never kill the thrills we've got
Burning up to the Crocodile Rock
Learning fast as the weeks went past
We really thought the Crocodile Rock would last
鱷魚搖滾  艾爾頓強


我還記得當搖滾樂年輕時
我和蘇西快樂極了
手牽著手,打著水漂兒
我有輛金色的舊雪佛蘭和自己的地方
但我做過最炫的事
是叫做" 鱷魚搖滾 "那檔事
當別的孩子跳著" 時鐘搖滾 "這首曲子
我們卻隨著鱷魚搖滾又跳又叫

" 鱷魚搖滾 "是頗嚇唬人的玩意兒
當你的雙腳一直停不下來
我從來沒這麼快樂過,我想以後也不可能了
噢!勞蒂媽媽和那些週五夜晚
當蘇西開始穿緊身洋裝
" 鱷魚搖滾 "也消失不見了

時光荏苒,搖滾已死
蘇西為了幾個外國佬離我們而去
漫漫長夜只能伴著電唱機哭泣
夢著我的雪佛蘭和舊牛仔褲
但這都無法消除我們內心的恐懼
在鱷魚搖滾中燃燒
一個個禮拜過去,我們很快都明白了
我們真的以為鱷魚搖滾可以繼續下去
