Songtext - die RioLyrics

My mama, she told me
She didn't like that rock and roll.
Oh, so please, mama, please,
Oh mama, you just don't know
I don't wanna hang up my rock'n roll shoes!
I get a good time feeling
Every time I hear that blues.

They say that rock'n roll
Soon will fade away.
But that's a bunch of shit
Rock'n roll is here to stay
I don't wanna hang up my rock'n roll shoes!
Because my feets are moving
Every time I hear that blues.

Yes, I will do my homework,
I clean the yard every day,
I'll even do the dishes,
Oh, I'll do anything you say.

Somebody even say
It is the devil in my soul.
But that's a bunch of shit,
I just want to rock'n roll.
I don't wanna hang up my rock'n roll shoes!
I had a good time feeling
Every time I hear the blues.

Yes, I will do my homework,
I clean the yard every day,
I'll even do the dishes,
Oh, I'll do anything you say.

My mama, she told me,
She didn't like that rock'n roll.
Oh so please, mama, please,
Oh mama, you just don't know,
I don't wanna hang up my rock'n roll shoes!
Because my feets are moving
Every time I hear that blues,
Yeah, I get an old time feeling
Every time I hear that blues,
Yeah, I get a good time feeling
Every time I hear that blues.
