The Story Of Rock And Roll
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well it started out way down inside
It took a left turn and headed all around
It was movin' very slow now
Cause it was travellin' by the word of mouth
And then it sure stopped dead in New Orleans yeah
Where the ladies look so clean
The people there, really dug on it
They found out just what it means
Yes to have rock and roll music
Sweet groovy music
Yes it's the only kind of music, yeah, that reaches right down to your soul..
I'm a guitar-pickin' fella
And it took me by the hand
And said hey, listen to me, everybody
I got a message that you got to understand
Then he took that brand new music, yeah
And he headed cross the USA
Some folk laughed when they heard that sound
But it looks like it's here to stay
Yes they call it rock and roll music
Sweet human music
Yes it's the only kind of music, yeah, that reaches right down to your soul..
Rock and roll music
Sweet human music
Yes it's the only kind of music, yeah, that reaches right down to your soul..
Gotta get, gotta get, gotta get my music
Gotta get, gotta get, gotta get my music
Gotta get, gotta get, gotta get my music
Gotta get, gotta get, gotta get my music
Gotta get, gotta get, gotta get my music
Gotta get, gotta get, gotta get my music
Gotta get, gotta get, gotta get my music
Gotta get, gotta get, gotta get my music
