Rock N Roll Is King

JEFF LYNNE

Lyrics Translation

Listen everybody let me tell you 'bout the rock 'n' roll
Feel that rhythm and it's really gonna thrill your soul
Come along with me, to a land of make believe
She said rock 'n' roll is king

She loves that rock 'n' roll and she plays it all night long
Oh that's all she ever tells me when I call her on the telephone
She says feel that jumpin' beat, and get up on your feet
She says rock 'n' roll is king

Oh let those guitars play
Play for me, play for me
Oh let that song ring out
And that's how it's meant to be

It rolls like a train that's comin' on down the track
She rolled over Beethoven and she gave Tchaikovsky back
Oh, she loves that drivin' beat, she goes dancin' on down the street
She said rock 'n' roll is king

Oh let those guitars play
Play for me, play for me
Oh let that song ring out
That's how it's meant to be

Well, when she comes around and I'm listenin' to the radio
She says you can't do that 'cause all I wanna do is rock 'n' roll
Now here I'm gonna stay where that music starts to play
She says rock 'n' roll is king

Rock 'n' roll is king
Rock 'n' roll is king

Listen everybody let me tell you 'bout the rock 'n' roll
Ouçam todos, deixem-me contar sobre o rock 'n' roll
Feel that rhythm and it's really gonna thrill your soul
Sinta esse ritmo e ele realmente vai emocionar sua alma
