“Rock Me Amadeus” is a song recorded by Austrian musician Falco for his 3rd studio album, Falco 3 (1985). It topped the singles charts on both sides of the Atlantic. It was Falco’s only nr. 1 hit in both USA and UK, despite the artist’s popularity in his native Austria and much of Europe.

[ Lyrics: Rock Me Amadeus ]
Ooo rock me Amadeus
Rock me Amadeus
Rock rock rock rock me Amadeus
Rock me all the time to the top
Er war ein Punker
Und er lebte in der gro?en Stadt
Es war Wien, war Vienna
Wo er alles tat
Er hatte Schulden denn er trank
Doch ihn liebten alle Frauen
Und jede rief:
Come on and rock me Amadeus
Chorus:
Er war Superstar
Er war popular
Er war so exaltiert
Because er hatte Flair
Er war ein Virtuose
War ein Rockidol
Und alles rief:
Come on and rock me Amadeus
Oh oh oh Amadeus
Come on and rock me Amadeus
Oh oh oh Amadeus hey
Es war um 1780
Und es war in Wien
No plastic money anymore
Die Banken gegen ihn
Woher die Schulden kamen
War wohl jedermann bekannt
Er war ein Mann der Frauen
Frauen liebten seinen Punk
Chorus:
Come and rock me Amadeus
Baby baby do it to me rock me
Baby baby do it to me rock me
Baby baby do it to me rock me
