Lyrics

Early Days

[Verse]

Out of touch with memories and feelings

Of those early days of rock and roll

Sometimes life just doesn't have no meaning

People just don't seem to have no soul

So I have to go right back to the beginning

And let that healing music flow

Get back in touch with memories and feelings

Of the early days of rock and roll

[Chorus]

Those early days

In so many ways

Well, brings a joyous feeling to my soul

Those early days

In so many ways

Early days of rock and roll

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse]

Out of touch with memories and feelings

Of those early days of rock and roll

Sometimes life just doesn't have no meaning

People just don't seem to have no soul

Ah, then I got to go right back to the beginning

And let that healing music flow

Get in touch with memories and feelings

Of the early days of rock and roll

[Chorus]

Those early days

In so many ways

Brings a joyous feeling to my soul

Those early days

In so many ways

I hear those early days of rock and roll

Those early days (Early days)

In many ways (Many ways)

Brings a joyous feeling to my soul

Got to go right back to the beginning

To those early days of rock and roll
