Viva Rock And Roll

(Album: San Francisco Dues - 1971)

Rock it, g'on jerk it, child, work it
Rock it, g'on take it, child, shake it
Rock it, oh singing the song
Viva, viva, rocking along

Grandma and Grandpa did the Charleston Rug
Aunt Mary and Uncle Joe, they did the Jitterbug
My sister used to do the Twist and Shout
But I'm with the Go-Go, I'm working on out

Rock on, g'on jerk it, child, work it, child
Rock on, go 'head and shake it, I can take it
Rock on, oh my soul
Viva, viva, rock 'n' roll

Rock it, g'on jerk it, child, work it
Rock it, g'on take it, child, shake it
Rock on, oh my soul
Viva, viva, rock 'n' roll

My mother had my sister learning Bach and Strauss
For years it was the only music in our house
But I got my guitar and I rearranged Bach
And came up with some good old folk and country rock

Rock on, go 'head and jerk it, child, work it
Rock on, go 'head and take it, I can shake it
Rock on, oh my soul
Viva, viva, rock 'n' roll
