Rock Love

(album: Adventures In Utopia - 1979)

I seen these big shots all come and go
Been there myself and there's one thing I know
You got to choose your heroes, choose them well
They could be leading you straight into hell

Let me be your protection
Keep the vampires off your neck
Sample your wine and stay so near
That you'll never have a thing to fear
Get thee behind me Satan

Big as a mountain, strong as a diamond
Rock love
Bright as a nova burning forever
Rock love, yeah
Close as a heart beat, free as the water
Rock love
Get thee behind me Satan

I see the same damn faces in the news
Taking up sides when there ain't nothing to choose
I think their game is just designed to confuse
They cut the pie up and the rest of us lose

Let me be your advisor
Keep the monkeys off your back
Figure your taxes, stay up all night
Making sure that everything is right
Get behind me Satan

Big as a mountain, strong as a diamond
Rock love
Bright as a nova burning forever
Rock love
(Spin it like a rock now)
Close as a heart beat, free as the water
Rock love

It seems like only yesterday
Remember when I used to say
I knew we'd be in vogue someday
Rock love is love and not fade away

Let me be your protection
Keep the vampires off your neck
Sample your wine and stay so near
That you'll never have a thing to fear
Get behind me Satan

Big as a mountain, strong as a diamond
Rock love, yeah
Bright as a nova burning forever
Rock love
(No, you got to rock love)
Close as a heart beat, free as the water
(Rock on, rock on, rock on)
Big as a mountain, strong as a diamond
Rock love
(Woo ooh...)
Bright as a nova burning forever
Rock love
(Yeah...)
Close as a heart beat, free as the water
Rock love
(Got to rock steady, got to rock steady)
(Got to rock steady)
Big as a mountain, strong as a diamond
Rock love

Bright as a nova burning forever
Rock love
(Can you feel it? Can you feel it? Can you feel it?)
Close as a heart beat, free as the water
Rock love
(Strong as a rock, strong as a rock)
Big as a mountain, strong as a diamond
(Hard as a rock, strong as a rock)
Rock love
(Hard as a rock, put your hands on the rock, yeah)
Bright as a nova burning forever
Rock love
(Yeah, yeah)
Close as a heart beat, free as the water
Rock love
(Woo, woo, woo)
Big as a mountain, strong as a diamond
Rock love
(Woo, woo, you got to rock the city now)
Bright as a nova burning forever
Rock love
Close as a heart beat, free as the water
Rock love
Big as a mountain, strong as a diamond
Rock love
Bright as a nova burning forever
Rock love
(Looking for a child like a rock, like a rock, like a...)
