Well, it's only rock and roll keep you running from yourself
|
When the only way to slow down is to fall
|
And it's only rock and roll that caused you to leave home
|
When the only way to get back is to crawl
|
|
But the record people love you they can get you on the bill
|
Change your name to money dress up fit to kill
|
People all around you everywhere you go
|
Don't worry if they love you son it's only rock and roll
|
|
Yes and it's only rock and roll keep you jumping all the time
|
When you really ought to sit this one out
|
And it's only rock and roll keep on messin' with your mind when
|
You don't know what they're talkin' about
|
|
All around the world everywhere you go
|
People got to have it 'cause it's only rock and roll
|
|
It's only rock and roll yes it's only rock and roll
|
People all around you everywhere you go
|
Don't worry if they love you, 'cause it's only rock and roll
|
|
Well it's only rock and roll when your money's in the mail
|
And your love's on the back of the bus
|
And it's only rock and roll when your records start to sell
|
And you don't know why they're making such a fuss
|
|
Telephone receiver ringin' off the wall
|
Can I get witness each and every call
|
Second that emotion chased into your soul
|
Don't worry lest you linger, son it's only rock and roll
|
|
It's only rock and roll yes it's only rock and roll
|
People all around you everywhere you go
|
Don't worry if they love you, 'cause it's only rock and roll
|
|
It's only rock and roll. yeah it's only rock and roll
|
All around the world everywhere you go
|
People got to have it son it's only rock and roll
|
