Two, one, two
It ain't a needle in a vein
It ain't backstage sex
It ain't lines of cocaine on a private jet
It ain't havin' a posse full of hangers-on following you around
It ain't long hair, tattoos, playin' too loud, nah
Ain't a middle finger on a t-shirt
The establishment's tryin' to sell
It's a guy with the balls who told the establishment to go to hell
It ain't about the money you make when a record gets sold
It's about doin' it for nothin', 'cause it lives in your soul
That's damn rock and roll
That's damn rock and roll
It's a rock through a window
It's a ride in the street
It's a rebel revolution
It's fightin' for peace
It's burn, baby burn
It's a brick in the wall
It's the first one to stand
And the last one to fall
It's a hip shaking devil on the stage in Tupelo
It's doing what ya want 'stead of doin' what your told
It's a preacher burnin' records telling folks they oughta pray
'Cause the shepherd bought a Gibson and lead the flock astray
Now that's damn rock and roll
Give all ya got 'til there ain't nothin' left
That's damn rock and roll
Get some grass 'cause the party
And the party got loud
And the party turned into an angry crowd
Drowning demons, feel no pain
Found Nevada ways to shame
Gone too soon just like a song
Hendrix, Joplin what went wrong?
Need some answers right or wrong
Need some band to blame it on
(Blame it on)
(Blame it on)
(Blame it on)
(Blame it on)
(Blame it on)
(Blame it on)
(Blame it on)
(Blame it on)
(Blame it on)
(Blame it on)
That's damn rock and roll
Give all ya got 'til there ain't nothin' left
That's damn rock and roll
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Another day
In another town
Loadin' the stage, and the lights, and the sound
Here they come boys
They've opened doors
Count us off now Craig
(One, two, three, four)
That's damn rock and roll
Give all ya go 'til there ain't nothin' left
That's damn rock and roll
Every ounce of your blood and your sweat
That's damn rock
That's damn rock and roll
(Rock and roll)
(Rock and roll)
(Damn rock and roll)
(Ooh, ooh, rock and roll)
(Rock and roll)
