Lyrics for Rock And Roll

Jenny said when she was just five years old There was nothing happening at all Every time she put on the radio There was nothing happening at all Then one fine morning, she put on a New York station She didn't believe what she heard at all She started dancing to that fine, fine music You know, her life was saved by rock and roll It took no computations To dance to a rock and roll station It was all right It was all right Jenny said when she was just five years old There was nothing happening at all Two TV sets and two Cadillac cars Well, baby, they won't help you at all Then one fine morning, she heard a New York station She didn't believe what she heard at all She started dancing to that fine, fine music You know, her life was saved by rock and roll Despite all the amputation You could dance to a rock and roll station And it was all right It was all right Here she comes now Jenny said when she was just five years old There was nothing happening at all Every time she put on the radio There was nothing happening at all When one fine morning, she heard a New York station She didn't believe what she heard at all She started dancing to that fine, fine music You know, her life was saved by rock and roll It took no computations To dance to a rock and roll station It was all right It was all right It was all right It was all right It was all right It was all right
