Rock On Lyrics

hey kids, rock and roll
rock on
hey kids, it's no use
Sleepin'
Showtime, summertime blues
Jump up and die in your blue suede shoes
Hey kids, rock and roll
We're gonna rock on

Where do we go from here
Which is the way that's clear

Still looking for that blue jean baby queen
Prettiest girl i've ever seen
See her die on my movie screens
Every day

Rock on
Rock on
Rock on
Rock on

Hey kids, rock and roll
Rock on
Cool my soul
Hey kids it's no use
Dreamin'
Lost out, cracked out
Find out what it's all about
Hey kids, rock and roll
We're gonna rock on

Where do we go from here
Which is the way that's clear
Where do we go from here
Which is the way that's clear

Still lookin' for that blue jean baby queen
Prettiest girl I've ever seen
See her die on my movie screens
every day

Rock on
Rock on
Rock on
Rock on
Rock on
Rock on
Rock on
Rock on

Hey kids, rock and roll
Hey kids, rock and roll
Rock on
Rock on

Rock on
Rock on
Hey kids, rock and roll
Rock on
Hey kids, rock on
Hey kids, rock and roll
Rock on
Rock on
Rock on

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Do you mean Dave Essex? This song is cool, but it can't touch Bowie.
