Keep Playin' That Rock and Roll

Don't you know that I was sittin' back in Texas

[hah]

I was playin' those rhythm and blues

And then I got a big offer

For more money than I could refuse

I had my chance to make it

Playin' anything I wanted to play

But playing back in my mind

You know I could hear the people say

Keep playin' that rock and roll

Keep doin' what you been told

[whoo]

Save your money up for when you get old

Got to keep playin' that rock 'n' roll

So I packed up and I made up to New York

[hah]

Where my brother was a great big star

He was doin' funky music [yeah]

Singin' and playin' guitar

Johnny was makin' the big time

Everything was goin' his way

But playing back in my mind

You know I could hear the people say

Keep playin' that rock and roll

Keep doin' what you been told

Save your money up for when you get old

Got to keep playin' that rock 'n' roll [Ya-oooo]

Don't you know that I been [grooin'] like a baby

Well I have been tryin' hard to figure it out

But there's a certain kinda music [yea]

Got to make you jump and shout

Ooh, now you can call it commercial

If you wanna see it that way

But playing back in my mind

You know I could hear the people say

Keep playin' that rock and roll

Keep doin' what you been told

Save your money up for when you get old

Keep playin' that rock and roll

Hah, ya got to keep on playin' [ya got to keep on playin']

Hah, ya got to keep on playin' [oh, oh, keep on playin']

Ya got to keep on playin' [ya got to keep on playin']

That rock and roll

Ooooh, keep playin' that rock and roll

Keep doin' what you been told

Save your money up for when you get old

Gotta to keep playin' that rock and roll

Rock and Roll [Rock and Roll]

Satisfy my soul
