Little Richard's long-time lead saxophone player Kenny Walker's funky tribute to the late Rock & Roll pioneer.

lyrics

The beauty's on duty
(The beauty's on duty)
Sho like to ball
(Sho like to ball)
The beauty's on duty
Said the mirror on the wall
The beauty's on duty
So let it be told
He's the king of
Rock'n roll

He put the "R" in rock'n roll
(RRRichard)
He's the king, the king of them all
Good golly miss molly
Sho like to ball
Slippin' and slidin' winter, summer, or fall
The beauty's on duty
Said the mirror on the wall
The beauty's on duty
He had a ball

The beauty's on duty
(The beauty's on duty)
Sho like to ball
(Sho like to ball)
The beauty's on duty
Said the mirror on the wall
The beauty's on duty
So let it be told
He's the king of
Rock'n roll

Kenny Kenny Kenny
Won't you blow your horn for me
(Kenny Kenny blow Kenny Kenny)
Play your tenor sax
Take it to the max ooh wee
(Spinnin' spinnin' blow spinnin' spinnin')
Maybe wanna prance
Do that famous dance ooh wee
(Kenny Kenny blow)

Sax solo

He put the "R" in rock'n roll
(RRRichard)
He's the king, the king of them all
Good golly miss molly
Sho like to ball
Slippin' and slidin winter, summer, or fall
The beauty's on duty
Said the mirror on the wall
The beauty's on duty
He had a ball

The beauty's on duty
(The beauty's on duty)
Sho like to ball
(Sho like to ball)
The beauty's on duty
Said the mirror on the wall
The beauty's on duty
So let it be told
He's the king of
Rock'n roll

Kenny Kenny Kenny
Won't you blow your horn for me
(Kenny Kenny blow Kenny Kenny)
Play your tenor sax
Take it to the max ooh wee
(Spinnin' spinnin' blow spinnin' spinnin')
Maybe wanna prance
Do that famous dance ooh wee
(Kenny Kenny blow)

So let it be told
He's the king of
