On the road to rock 'n' roll
|
There's a lot of wreckage in the ravine
|
Some you recognise
|
Used to hang out on the scene
|
On the road to rock 'n' roll
|
|
We'll be in the delta by and by
|
And if you don't believe in good and evil
|
You can tell the devil why
|
On the road to rock 'n' roll
|
Come on everybody drift away
|
On the road to rock 'n' roll
|
Where I learned to play
|
Rock 'n' roll, rock 'n' roll, rock 'n' roll
|
What I learned to play
|
|
On the road to rock 'n' roll
|
Everybody carries a good luck charm
|
Said to spook the highway wind
|
Blowing off old Parchman farm
|
On the road to rock 'n' roll
|
They'll try to hook you by the eye
|
There's a mirror in your soul
|
You should turn it to the sky
|
|
On the road to rock 'n' roll
|
The lonely sing a soulful song
|
Leave a little light in the wilderness
|
For somebody to come upon
|
On the road to rock 'n' roll
|
With everybody deep in their dreams
|
And the snow is falling on the city
|
Ask the music what it means
|
|
On the road to rock 'n' roll
|
Come on everybody drift away
|
On the road to rock 'n' roll
|
Where I learned to play
|
Rock 'n' roll, rock 'n' roll
|
Rock 'n' roll where I learned to play
|
On the road
|
