Rock And Roll Lyrics
You know there's nothing happening at all
Every time she puts on the radio
There was nothing goin' down at all
Then one fine mornin' she puts on a New York station
She couldn't believe what she heard at all
She started dancin' to that fine fine music
You know her life was saved by Rock 'n' Roll
Despite all the amputations
You could just dance to a rock 'n' roll station
Jenny said when she was just five years old
My parents are gonna be the death of us all
Two TV sets and two Cadillac cars--
Ain't gonna help us at all
Then one fine mornin' she puts on a New York station
She don't believe what she heard at all
She started dancin' to that fine fine music
You know her life was saved by Rock 'n' Roll
Despite all the computations
You could just dance to a rock 'n ' roll station

probably the single greatest rock song ever.

RIP Lou! <3

this song is the greatest ballad about the power of rock ever. Ever. Its is a fucking amazing song

I have standing orders with the girlfriend to have "His life was saved by rock 'n' roll" put on my headstone. Not joking.

This song is truth. Rock and roll is a religion to me; this is my Psalm 23.

just a good ol' fashioned rock 'n' roll song about listenig to the genre

I love the guitar solo on this.

i love this song live

jane's addiction does a really good cover of this, i think you can find it on "strays". fantastic song.
@aceofhearts1 Actually, the cover of The Velvet Underground's 'Rock and Roll' is on the 1987 self-titled live album 'Jane's Addiction'.

This is more than just a song it's an opiate for the mind to escape from the dulldrum of life and rock to something that truly is one of the greatest rock songs ever made from an underappreciated legendary band.
