(rodney crowell)



Well, it's only rock and roll keep you running from yourself

When the only way to slow down is to fall

And it's only rock and roll that caused you to leave home

When the only way to get back is to crawl



But the record people love you they can get you on the bill

Change your name to money dress up fit to kill

People all around you everywhere you go

Don't worry if they love you son it's only rock and roll



Yes and it's only rock and roll keep you jumping all the time

When you really ought to sit this one out

And it's only rock and roll keep on messin' with your mind when

You don't know what they're talkin' about



All around the world everywhere you go

People got to have it 'cause it's only rock and roll



It's only rock and roll yes it's only rock and roll

People all around you everywhere you go

Don't worry if they love you, 'cause it's only rock and roll



Well it's only rock and roll when your money's in the mail

And your love's on the back of the bus

And it's only rock and roll when your records start to sell

And you don't know why they're making such a fuss



Telephone receiver ringin' off the wall

Can i get witness each and every call

Second that emotion chased into your soul

Don't worry lest you linger, son it's only rock and roll



It's only rock and roll yes it's only rock and roll

People all around you everywhere you go

Don't worry if they love you, 'cause it's only rock and roll



It's only rock and roll. yeah it's only rock and roll

All around the world everywhere you go

People got to have it son it's only rock and roll
