Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Once was a thought inside my head
'Fore I reach thirty I'd be dead
But somehow, on and on I go, oh, oh
I keep on rollin' with the flow
[Verse 2]
Folks said that I would change my mind
I'd straighten up and do just fine
Ah, but I still love rock and roll, oh, oh
I keep on rollin' with the flow (Keep on rollin' with the flow)
[Chorus]
While guys my age are raisin' kids
I'm raisin' hell just like I did
I've got a lot of crazy friends
And they forgive me of my sins
[Verse 3]
Some might be callin' me a bum
But I'm still out there havin' fun
And Jesus loves me, yes, I know, oh, oh
So I keep on rollin' with the flow (Keep on rollin' with the flow)
[Chorus]
While guys my age are raisin' kids
Well, I'm raisin' hell just like I did
I've got a lot of crazy friends
And they forgive me of my sins
[Verse 4]
Can't take it with you when you're gone
But I want enough to get there on
And I ain't ever growin' old, oh, oh
So I keep on rollin' with the flow (Keep on rollin' with the flow)
[Outro]
I ain't never growin' old, oh, oh
If I keep on rollin' with the flow (Keep on rollin' with the flow)
Keep on rollin' with the flow (Keep on rollin' with the flow)
Keep on rollin' with the flow (Keep on rollin' with the flow)
