Lyrics
"Rock is still Rollin'" (Paul Martin and Gerry Simpson)
Playin' with his band to a messed up crowd,
Some are dancin',some think it's too loud.
Seen it all before at the age of sixteen,
When he bopped to Jerry Lee and dressed like James Dean.
He don't mind,Don't mind at all
Gettin' it on, cos' He's havin a ball
You're never too old when your Rock is still Rollin',
Thanks to the years this oldie is golden.
He never change ,always been like this
If He ever grows up He wants to be Elvis.
People say He's wastin' time,
Doin' what He's doin' thats no crime.
Day after day ,night after night,
Livin' for the music, in the spotlight
Rock 'n'roll it's all worthwhile
If he's wastin' time he's he's doin' it style.
You're never too old when your Rock is still Rollin',
Thanks to the years this oldie is golden.
He never change ,always been like this
If He ever grows up He wants to be Elvis.
Solo
Twenty more miles headin' for Memphis
Crazy Horse saloon for beer and expenses.
Travelled every highway,Played all the bars,
Made himself a livin',never made the stars
It's not about the money, all about the fame
He's got the music runnin' through his veins
You're never too old when your Rock is still Rollin',
Thanks to the years this oldie is golden.
He never change ,always been like this
If He ever grows up He wants to be Elvis.
(Repeat chorus x3)
