  • The old-time cave dweller lived in a cave
    Here's what he did we he wanted a rave
    He took a stick and he drew on the wall
    Man, a fellah had to settle for
    Rock with the caveman
    Roll with the caveman
    Shake with the caveman
    Baby, make with the caveman, oh boy
    Shake with the caveman
    Stalactites, stalagmiite
    Hold your baby very tight

    His way with women was rather neat
    He'd love a girl right off her feet
    You know the lyric writers would never lie
    It's where they got the sayin' ""starry eyed""
    Rock with the caveman
    Roll with the caveman
    Shake with the caveman
    Make with the caveman, oh boy
    Shake with the caveman
    Stalactites, stalagmiite
    Hold your baby very tight

    (Saxophone Solo)

    Piltdown poppa sings this song
    ""Archaeology's done me wrong""
    The British Museum's got my head
    Most unfortunate 'cause I ain't dead
    Rock with the caveman
    Roll with the caveman
    Shake with the caveman
    Break with the caveman
    Make with the caveman
    C-A-V-E-M-A-N, Caveman! Writer/s: Frank Chacksfield, Lionel Bart, Michael Pratt, Tommy Steele
