Keep Playin' That Rock 'N' Roll

Ay

Don't you know that I was sitting back in Texas, ha

I was playing those rhythm and blues

And then I got a big offer

For more money than I could refuse

I had my chance to make it

Playing anything I wanted to play

But way back in my mind

You know I could hear the people say

Keep playin' that rock 'n' roll

Keep doing what you been told, hoo

Save your money up for when you get old

Got to keep playin' that rock 'n' roll

So I packed up and I made it up to New York, ha

Where my brother was a great big star

He was doing funky music, yeah

Singing and playing guitar

Johnny was making the big time

Everything was going his way

But way back in my mind

You know I could hear the people say

Keep playin' that rock 'n' roll

Keep doing what you been told

Save your money up for when you get old

Got to keep playin' that rock 'n' roll, oh

Don't you know that I've been doing lots of thinking

Well I have been trying hard to figure it out

But there's a certain kind of music, yeah

Got to make you jump and shout

Mmm, now you can call it commercial

If you wanna see it that way

But way back in my mind

You know I could hear the people say

Keep playin' that rock 'n' roll, ha

Keep doing what you been told

Save your money up for when you get old

Got to keep playin' that rock 'n' roll

Oh, you got to keep on playing (You got to keep on playing)

Oh, you got to keep on playing (You got to keep on playing)

You got to keep on playing (You got to keep on playing)

Got to keep playin' that rock 'n' roll

Oh, keep playin' that rock 'n' roll

Keep doing what you been told

Save your money up for when you get old

Got to keep playin' that rock 'n' roll (Rock 'n' roll)

Rock 'n' roll to satisfy my soul
