That Is Rock And Roll

(album: I'm No J.D. - 1971)

In the beginning there was nothing but rock
Then somebody invented the wheel
And finally just begans to roll

Did you ever hear the tenor sax
Swinging like a rusty axe
Honking like a frog, down in a holow log
Baby, that is rock and roll

Did you ever hear a guitar twang
Jingy jingy jingy jang
Ever hear those strings doing crazy things
Baby, that is rock and roll

That ain't no freight train that you hear
Rolling down the railroad tracks
That's a country boy's piano band
Playing in between the cracks

You say that music's for the birds
And you can't understand the words
Well, honey, if you did, you really blow your lid
'Cause baby, that is rock and roll

In the morning, in the evening
