LET ME TELL YOU YOUNG ONES ´BOUT A THING I KNOW
IT OCCURD TO ME SOME YEARS AGO
IT´S ABOUT A THING THAT CAN´T BE BEAT
AND I KNOW IT WOULD SHURELY KNOCK YOU OF YOUR FEET
WHAT I´M ON ABOUT IS AN OLD TIME DANCE
DONE TO A MUSIC THAT DON´T SEEM TO STAND A CHANCE
IN THIS MODERN WORLD OF FASHION AND TEQNICUE
THIS POOR CREATURE IS REALLY GETTIN´ WEEK
STILL NOBODY SEEMS TO CARE
NOONE BUT ME ´N´ THAT´S WHY I´M HERE
THESE DAYS EVERYBODY´S PLAYIN´ROCK
AIN´T NOBODY SEEM TO ROLL
AND IF YOU WANNA MOVE ME DOWN IN MY SOUL
IT´S GOTTA BE BOTH ROCK´N´ROLL
WHEN MR.ROCK FIRST MET MR.ROLL
LONG TIME AGO BACK IN THE DAYS OF OLD
THEY BOTH BELIEVED THAT THEY WERE GONNA LAST
SO THEY KEPT LOVE SIMPLE ´N´ JUST LET IT BLAST
BUT SOMEWHERE ´LONG THE LINE MR. ROLL GOT DISPLACED
AND THAT TO ME IS A REAL DISGRACE
THAT´S LIKE TAKIN´THE WHEELS OF A CAR
OR SEPERATE THE STRINGS FROM A GUITAR
ROCK IS DOIN´FINE EVEN THOUGH THEY´RE APART
BUT POOR MR. ROLL IS MISSIN ´ON THE CHARTS
TURN ON THE RADIO AND LEND IT YOUR EAR
ROCK YOU WILL FIND BUT ROLL YOU WON´T HEAR
GO ON DOWN TO YOUR RECORDSTORE
THEY´LL TELL YOU SORRY WE DONT SELL THAT NOMORE
SEEMS LIKE WE´RE SUPPORTIN´AN OLD DYIN´BREED
BUT JUST A LTTLE ATTENTION THAT´S ALL WE NEED
´CAUSE ONCE YOU´VE HEARD THAT IT´S GOT THAT SWING
YOU´LL REALISE THAT IT BEATS EVERYTHING
SO LISTEN EVERYBODY IT´S AN EMERGENCY CALL
FROM POOR OL´ROLL WHO´S BOUND TO FALL
IT OCCURD TO ME SOME YEARS AGO
IT´S ABOUT A THING THAT CAN´T BE BEAT
AND I KNOW IT WOULD SHURELY KNOCK YOU OF YOUR FEET
WHAT I´M ON ABOUT IS AN OLD TIME DANCE
