Lyrics
Rock Of Ages
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.
So what if a-wop-bop-a loo-bam boom didn't rhyme
Billy Haley and the Comets drove me to the prom in time
A Little Richard goes a long long way
More than twenty long years to this day
Rock of ages roll away rock away roll away
We were dancin' in the streets and shapin' our lives in school
When we were simply thirteen, God saved the queen in Liverpool
A mop top mersey goes a long long way
More than ten long years to this day
Rock of ages roll away rock away roll away
Three plays for a quarter is ancient history now
But the Stones roll away and rock that juke box till
Satisfaction goes a long long way
Much more than five long years to this day
Rock of ages roll away rock away roll away
A Little Richard goes a long long way
More than twenty long years to this day
Rock of ages roll away rock away roll away
