《Rock and Roll》歌词

[00:03:11] I can still remember

[00:03:11] When I bought my first guitar

[00:03:11] Remember just how good the feeling

[00:03:11] To put it proudly in my car

[00:03:11] And my family listened fifty times

[00:03:11] To my two song repertoire

[00:03:11] I told my mom

[00:03:11] Her only son was gonna be a star

[00:03:11] Bought all the Beatles records

[00:03:11] I sounded just like Paul

[00:03:11] I bought all the old Chuck Berry's - 78's and all

[00:03:11] I sat by my record player

[00:03:11] Playing every note they played

[00:03:11] I watched them all on TV

[00:03:11] Making every move they made

[00:03:11]

[00:03:11] Rock and roll, I gave you all

[00:03:11] The best years of my life

[00:03:11] All the dreamy sunny Sundays

[00:03:11] All the moonlit summer nights

[00:03:11] I was so busy in the backroom

[00:03:11] Writing love songs to you

[00:03:11] While you were changing your direction

[00:03:11] And you never even knew

[00:03:11] That I was always just one step behind you

[00:03:11]

[00:03:11] Sixty-six seemed like the year

[00:03:11] I was really going somewhere

[00:03:11] We were living in San Francisco

[00:03:11] With flowers in our hair

[00:03:11] Singing songs of kindness

[00:03:11] So the world would understand

[00:03:11] To the guys and me you were something more

[00:03:11] Than just another band

[00:03:11]

[00:03:11] And then sixty-nine in LA

[00:03:11] Came around so soon

[00:03:11] We were really making headway

[00:03:11] And writing lots of tunes

[00:03:11] And we must have played

[00:03:11] The wildest stuff that we had ever played

[00:03:11] And the way the crowds cried out for us

[00:03:11] We thought we had it made

[00:03:11]

[00:03:11] Rock and roll, I gave you all

[00:03:11] The best years of my life

[00:03:11] All the crazy, lazy, young days

[00:03:11] All the magic moon at night

[00:03:11] I was so busy on the road

[00:03:11] Singing love songs to you

[00:03:11] While you were changing your direction

[00:03:11] And you never even knew

[00:03:11] That I was always just one step behind you

[00:03:11]

[00:03:11] Seventy-one and so alone

[00:03:11] When I met Susanne

[00:03:11] I was trying to go it solo

[00:03:11] With someone else's band

[00:03:11] She came up to me later

[00:03:11] And I took her by the hand

[00:03:11] And I told her all my troubles

[00:03:11] And she seemed to understand

[00:03:11]

[00:03:11] And she followed me to London

[00:03:11] Through a hundred hotel rooms

[00:03:11] Through a hundred record companies

[00:03:11] Who didn't like my tunes

[00:03:11] She followed me when finally

[00:03:11] I sold my old guitar

[00:03:11] She tried to help me

[00:03:11] Understand I'd never be a star

[00:03:11]

[00:03:11] Rock and roll, I gave you

[00:03:11] All the best years of my life

[00:03:11] All the dreamy, sunny Sundays

[00:03:11] All the moonlit summer nights

[00:03:11] And though I never knew

[00:03:11] The magic of making it with you

[00:03:11] That I thank the Lord for giving me

[00:03:11] The little bit I knew

[00:03:11] And I was always just one step behind you
