Twenty Flight Rock
Jeff Beck Feat. Brian Setzer Lyrics

Oh I get a girl with a record machine
I have a girlfriend who loves music and owns a record player.

When it comes to rockin' she's the queen
She's really good at dancing to rock music.

We go to dance on Saturday night
We go out dancing together every Saturday night.

I'm all alone and I hold her tight
I dance with her closely, embracing her tightly.

But she live on the twentieth floor in town
Unfortunately, she lives on the 20th floor of a building in downtown.

The elevator's broken down
The elevator is out of order, so we have to climb the stairs.

So I walk one, two flight, three flight four
I start climbing the stairs, going from the first to the fourth floor.

Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more
I keep climbing, going from the fifth to the eighth floor and beyond.

Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag
When I reach the twelfth floor, I start to feel tired and weak.

Fifteenth floor I'm ready to drag
By the time I reach the fifteenth floor, I'm exhausted and struggling to continue.

Get to the top, I'm too tired to rock
Finally, when I reach the top floor, I'm too tired even to dance.

Well she called me up on the telephone
Later on, my girlfriend calls me on the phone.

Said "come on over, baby, I'm all alone"
She invites me to her apartment, saying she's alone.

I said "baby, you're mighty sweet
I express my appreciation for her, calling her "mighty sweet."

But I'm in bed with the achin' feet"
I decline her invitation, telling her my feet are sore and I need to rest.

This went on for a couple of days
We kept talking on the phone for a few days.

But I could not stay away
Eventually, I can't resist seeing her again.

Yeah, we sent to Chicago for repairs
We send for someone from Chicago to come fix the elevator.

Till it's a-fixed I'm using the stairs
Until the elevator is fixed, we have to climb the stairs to see each other.

I love you, baby, wanna see your face
I express my love for her and tell her how much I want to see her.

I love you baby, too much to wait
I can't wait to see her, especially since I love her so much.

All this climbing is gettin' me down
However, all the climbing is starting to wear me out and make me feel down.

They'll find my cold feet over the rail
I jokingly remark that if I have to climb the stairs much longer, I might jump off the ledge.

So I walk one, two flight, three flight four
The song repeats the earlier lines about my climb up the stairs.

five, six, seven flight, eight flight more
I keep climbing, going from the fifth to the eighth floor and beyond, again.

Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag
I reach the twelfth floor and start to feel tired and weak, again.

Fifteenth floor I'm ready to drag
As always, I'm exhausted and struggling to continue by the time I reach the fifteenth floor.

Get to the top, I'm too tired to rock
Finally, when I reach the top floor, I'm too exhausted even to dance, as always.
