It's Only Rock And Roll

(album: But What Will The Neighbors Think - 1980)

Well, it's only rock and roll keep you running from yourself
When the only way to slow down is to fall
It's only rock and roll that caused you to leave home
When the only way to get back is to crawl

But the record people love you they can get you on the bill
Change your name to money dress up fit to kill
People all around you everywhere you go
Don't worry they love you son, it's only rock and roll

Well, it's only rock and roll keep you jumping all the time
When you really ought to sit this one out
And it's only rock and roll keep on messing with your mind
When you don't know what they're talking about
All around the world everywhere you go
People got to have it, it's only rock and roll

Only rock and roll only rock and roll
People all around everywhere you go
Don't worry if they love you 'cause it's only rock and roll

Well, it's only rock and roll when your money's in the mail
And your love is on the back of the bus
And it's only rock and roll when your records start to sell
And you don't know why they're making such a fuss

Telephone receiver ringing off the wall
Can I get a witness each and every call
Second that emotion chased into your soul
Don't worry lest you linger son, it's only rock and roll

Only rock and roll only rock and roll
People all around everywhere you go
Don't worry if they love you 'cause it's only rock and roll

Only rock and roll only rock and roll
People all around everywhere you go
Don't worry if they love you 'cause it's only rock and roll
