  They're comin' from all over the world

  Hey, everybody, see 'em arrivin'

  From Liverpool to Tennessee

  Chuck Berry's checkin' in from St. Lou

  He's gonna sing "Maybelline" and "Memphis" too

  The representative from New York City

  Is Lesley Gore, now, she sure looks pretty

Chorus

  Here they come (from all over the world)

  Here they come (from all over the world)

  You know the guitar's groovin' so keep it movin'

  And come on, come on, come on

  They're comin' from all over the world

Verse 2

Can't you just hear everybody singin'

The biggest sound you've ever heard

A-clappin' and a-stompin' while the guitar's screamin'

You better go spread the word
