Lyrics Rock Music - Live: X’s San Francisco 31 Dec ‘79 (Early Set) - Jefferson Starship

Rock and roll is good time music
Listen to it
Rock and roll is good time music
Listen to it

Alright
Mama said, "Be a doctor son"
But a voice said, "Follow the music"
Papa said, "Be a lawyer boy"
But a voice said, "Follow the music"

'Cause you know you're not doin' for the money
You're doin' it just for the thrills
You don't do it for money, boy
So thank the Lord rock keeps payin' the bills

I said, "Rock and roll is good time music
Listen to it
Rock and roll is good time music
Have a listen to it"

Alright, oh yeah
You may think that life ain't no laughing matter
And go right on a talkin' all your intellectual chatter
Well all that jivin', it ain't true so let's just push on through
Rock and roll to stay alive, rock and roll will survive

Sneakin' Monica out after the prom
You know I didn't get her back till just before dawn
Outside we were creepin', inside everyone was sleepin
Goodness gracious that's rock and roll, oh yeah, alright

I told you
Rock and roll is good time music
Listen to it
Rock and roll is good time music
Listen, listen, listen

Rock and roll is good time music
Told you to listen to it
Rock and roll is good time music
Listen to it

Rock and roll is good time music
Rock and roll is good time music
Rock and roll is good time music
