Lyrics

Rock and Roll

[Verse 1]

Jennie said when she was five years old

Well there's nothin' happenin' at all

Every time she put on a radio

There was nothin' goin' down at all

Then one fine mornin' she put on the New York station

Couldn't believe what she heard at all

She started dancin' to that fine, fine music

Her life was saved by rock 'n' roll

[Pre-Chorus]

Despite all the complications

You could go on and dance to the rock 'n' roll station

[Chorus]

It was alright (It was alright)

It was alright (It was alright)

[Verse 2]

Jennie said when she was five years old

Well my parents will be the death of us all

Two TV sets and two Cadillac cars

Well, it ain't gonna help you at all, not at all

One fine mornin', she put on the New York station

Didn't believe what she heard at all

She started shakin' to that fine, fine music

Her life was saved by rock 'n' roll, rock 'n' roll

[Pre-Chorus]

Despite all the complications

You could dance to the rock 'n' roll station

[Chorus]

It was alright (It was alright)

It was alright (It was alright)

[Verse 3]

Jennie said when she was five years old

Well, there's nothing happening at all, not at all

Every time she put on the radio

There is nothin' goin' down at all

One fine mornin' she put on the New York station

Couldn't believe what she heard at all

She started dancin' to that fine, fine music

Her life was saved by rock 'n' roll

[Pre-Chorus]

Despite all the complications

You could dance to the rock 'n' roll station

[Chorus]

It was alright, it was alright

It was alright, it was alright

It was alright (alright), alright (alright)

Alright (alright), alright (alright)

Alright (alright), alright (alright)

Alright (alright), alright (alright)
