Momma Don't Stop

Well, I never thought I'd see you back

On my side of the railroad tracks

Just blown in from Tokyo

Hangin' out at the rock n' roll show

You're lookin' for some kid to sign

Catchin' jive off the grapevine

"Billboard's" runnin' a picture next week

"Hits" applauds you on your winnin' streak

Never mind you're sleepin' alone

There's always someone else on the phone

So momma don't stop your rock n' roll

You might just find your heart has gone cold

Momma don't stop your rock n' roll

All day long

I'm real impressed with the things that you've done

Look how far this lady has come

Used to be so quiet and sweet

Now your name's all over the street

Used to charge it by the hour

Now you own an apartment tower

It's a shame about your former friends

Everyone now is a means to an end

Never mind you're livin' alone

It's hard to get a scratch on the lovin' jones

So momma don't stop your rock n' roll

You might just find your little lost soul

Momma don't stop your rock n' roll

All night long

It's so hard to be a woman today

To get what you deserve

It's not easy when you work this way

You have to keep a distant reserve

So momma don't stop your rock n' roll

You might just find your heart has gone cold

So momma don't stop your rock n' roll

All night long
