It’s Rock and Roll
In the world of rock and roll
There is no time to stop
It's a fast lane to a fast plane
When you're flying for the top
And the bright lights fall down on you
And the money does the same
And all those hungry people
Are screaming out your name
And the little teeny boppers
Will beg for one night stands
So they can feel important
When they tell all their friends
And the one you hate the most
Is the newest up-and-comer
And the one you lovе the most
Just ran off with your drummer
And agents will abusе you
Promoters want to use you
So they can line their pockets
With what's left down in your soul
And all that autographing
And all those people clapping
There ain't no time for napping
In the world of rock and roll
I blew 'em all away in Cincinnati
I left 'em in the aisles in L.A
Had 'em standing out the door down in Miami
And they were lined up clear to Tampa Bay
Tomorrow it's another show
And talking on the radio
And rolling down that lost highway
So hang on, baby
It's a fast ride maybe
But it's rock and roll
It's rock and roll
It's rock and roll
It's rock and roll
You know I don't really love you
You know I won't remember your name
But you know if you don't want to love me
I've got another girl on the way
Tomorrow it's another show
Dallas, San Antonio
Chicago, San Francisco, Bombay
So hang on, baby
It's a fast ride maybe
But it's rock and roll
It's rock and roll
It's rock and roll
It's rock and roll
It's all right
We're gonna rock all night, baby
It's all right
'Cause it's rock and roll
It's all right
We're gonna rock all night, baby
It's all right
'Cause it's rock and roll
It's all right
We're gonna rock all night, baby
It's all right
'Cause it's rock and roll
It's rock and roll
It's rock and roll
It's rock and roll
Janis died when she was sleeping
And I was only seventeen
Elvis died at home in Memphis
But that won't ever happen to me
So line me up and let me go
I got to do another show
And bring those people down to their knees
So hang on baby
It's a fast ride maybe
But it's rock and roll
It's rock and roll
It's rock and roll
It's rock and roll
It's rock and roll
(It's rock and roll)
It's rock and roll
(It's rock and roll)
It's rock and roll
(It's rock and roll)
It's rock and roll
(It's rock and roll)
