lyrics

Hey, Rock & Roll


My friend Rock & Roll, she came
Crying up to me one day
Wishing we were all still young
Look at us now...
__________________________

Our old pal Country Boy came by
He came by with a plastic tie
When he was young he had my respect
But now... I don't know.

That punk that no one used to like
Is selling sneakers on a bike
Though he was crazy, he had style
Now no one cares

Johnny Blues had soul to spare
Now he walks around in his underwear
'Tighty-whities' I've been told
I didn't look

Uncle R&B once said,
"If I change, just shoot me dead!"
I wish his daughter got to know him
Before he died
___________________________

Hey Rock & Roll
Tell me what happened to your soul
Tell me did your passion end
Oh yeah for you and your friends

Baby maybe we could go
And listen to the radio
But she said all our friends have broke it
And then she cried

I guess it's true 'bout what they say
As time goes by your friends will stray
But we'll stick together and reminisce
Just you and me

Hey Rock & Roll
Tell me what happened to your soul
Tell me did your passion end
Oh yeah for you and your friends

[dying guitar]
