LYRICS
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, naw
It aint a middle finger on a tee shirt that the establishment’s trying to sell
It’s a guy with the balls tellin’ 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 nothing because it lives in your soul
That’s damn rock and roll
That’s damn rock and roll
It’s a rock thru a window it’s a riot in the street
It’s a rebel revolution that’s fightin’ for peace
It’s burn baby burn It’s a brick in the wall
It’s first one to stand and the last one to fall
It’s a hip shakin' devil on a stage in Tupelo
It’s doin’ what you want stead of doin’ what you're told
It’s a preacher burnin records tellin folks they ought to pray
Cause the shepherd bought a Gibson and lead the flock astray
That’s damn rock and roll
Give all you’ve got till there ain’t nothing left
That’s damn rock and roll
Yeah when the clash crashed the party and the party got loud
And the party turned into an angry crowd
Drowning demons feel no pain found Nirvana wasted shame
Gone too soon just like a song
Hendrix, Joplin what went wrong
Need some answers right or wrong
Need something 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 you’ve got till there ain’t nothing left
That’s damn rock and roll
Woo hoo woo hoo woo hoo woo hoo
Another day in another town
Load in the stage and the lights and the sound
Here they come boys they opened doors
count us off now Craig, one, two, three, four
That’s damn rock and roll
Give all you’ve got till there ain’t nothing 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,
That’s damn rock and roll
Rock and roll
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, naw
It aint a middle finger on a tee shirt that the establishment’s trying to sell
It’s a guy with the balls tellin’ 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 nothing because it lives in your soul
That’s damn rock and roll
That’s damn rock and roll
It’s a rock thru a window it’s a riot in the street
It’s a rebel revolution that’s fightin’ for peace
It’s burn baby burn It’s a brick in the wall
It’s first one to stand and the last one to fall
It’s a hip shakin' devil on a stage in Tupelo
It’s doin’ what you want stead of doin’ what you're told
It’s a preacher burnin records tellin folks they ought to pray
Cause the shepherd bought a Gibson and lead the flock astray
That’s damn rock and roll
Give all you’ve got till there ain’t nothing left
That’s damn rock and roll

Drowning demons feel no pain found Nirvana wasted shame
Gone too soon just like a song

Need something 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 you’ve got till there ain’t nothing left
That’s damn rock and roll
Woo hoo woo hoo woo hoo woo hoo

Every ounce of your blood and your sweat
That’s damn rock,
That’s damn rock and roll
Rock and roll,
That’s damn rock and roll
Rock and roll
