Additional info
- One of Queen's favorite songs to perform live, 'Jailhouse Rock' was played during almost every tour between 1970 and 1985, often as part of the 'Rock 'N' Roll Medley'. Reportedly, a studio version was recorded during sessions for the debut album, but this remains unconfirmed.

Lyrics
1981 Queen Rock Montreal version
The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there and they began to wail
The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing
You should've heard them knocked out jailbirds sing
Let's rock - everybody rock and roll tonight
Everybody in the hotel block
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Number forty-seven said to number three
'You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see'
'Sure would be delighted with your company'
'Come on and do the jailhouse rock with me'
Let's rock, everybody, rock and roll, tonight
Everybody in the whole cell block
Dancin' to the jailhouse rock
Yeah
Dancing, dancing, jailhouse rock
One more time
Yeah, hey
Keep dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Do it, c'mon
Dancing, dancing
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Move it you fuckers, come on
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Alright
Dancing, dancing, dancing
Keep dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Yeah, yeah, we're gonna end it, yeah
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Hey, yeah
Yeah
We're dancing to the jailhouse rock
