God gave rock and roll to you

Gave rock and roll to you

Put it in the soul of everyone



Do you know what you want?

You don't know for sure

You don't feel right

You can't find a cure

And you're gettin' less

Than what you're lookin' for



You don't have money or a fancy car

And you're tired of wishin' on a falling star

You gotta put your faith in a loud guitar



God gave rock and roll to you

Gave rock and roll to you

Gave rock and roll to everyone (oh yeah)

God gave rock and roll to you

Gave rock and roll to you

Put it in the soul of everyone



Now listen

If you wanna be a singer, or play guitar

Man, you gotta sweat or you won't get far

Cause it's never too late to work nine-to-five



You can take a stand, or you can compromise

You can work real hard or just fantasize

But you don't start livin' till you realize

I gotta tell ya



God gave rock and roll to you

Gave rock and roll to you

Gave rock and roll to everyone

God gave rock and roll to you

Gave rock and roll to you

Put it in the soul



God gave rock and roll to you

(To everyone he gave the song to be sung)

Gave rock and roll to you

Gave rock and roll to everyone



God gave rock and roll to you

(To everyone he gave the song to be sung)

Gave rock and roll to you

Saved rock and roll for everyone

Saved rock and roll



God gave rock and roll to you...



"I know life sometimes can get tough

And I know life sometimes can be a drag

But people, we have been given a gift

We have been given a road

And that road's name is...

Rock and Roll!"
