Been There Before

There's a down town corner, people down town know
And I back beat rhythm on the radio
And the girl who listens
To a young man's song
On the block I live on
In the place I'm from
With a young man sitting
On a dock off the bay
He took a longterm trip
On a first class plane
Now the whole world listens
To that one man's song
On the block I live on
In the place I'm from
Tell me, does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul
With the roots of rock & roll
Does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul
With the roots of rock & roll
Well the men in black suits
On a screened in porch
Making birthday wishes
Seventy one almost
You can hear him singing
Chariot swing low
On the block I live on
In the place I know
Tell me, does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul
With the roots of rock & roll
Does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul
With the roots of rock & roll
Tell me, does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul
With the roots of rock & roll
Does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul with the
Roots of rock and roll
Na na na na na na, I've been there before
Na na na na na na,I've been there before
Na na na na na na, I've been there before
Na na na na na na, I've been there before
When you can't get through it
Listen to it
With a na na na na
Well I've been there before
When you can't get through it
Listen to it
With a na na na na
Well I've been there before
