We did some rock and roll up in texas

And the folks from the coast towns said

You better watch yourself up in texas

Or youyou might just end up deadboy

But the people I found

Grooving to the sound

Of rock and roll music in the air

We all had a ball

With no hassles at all

Pretty soon I'm gonna go back there



I'm singing

Rock and roll music to the world

Rock and roll music to the world

Ain't no relation

To the united nations

Keep rock and rolling to the world

Give peace a chance

Get up and dance



When I sing

Rock and roll music to the world

I'm gonna scream

I'm gonna shout

Get my emotions

And work them all right out



I wanna live

Just like I give

No need to fight

Wait for tonight

When I sing

Rock and roll music to the world



Rock and roll music to the world

Rock and roll music to the world

Ain't got no calling

Except for balling

Rock and roll music to the world

Don't need no boost

Just turn me loose

And I sing

Rock and roll music to the world

I tell the truth

I ain't no star

I only shout

And leave the rest to my guitar



Rock and roll music to the world

Rock and roll music to the world

Ain't no relation

To the united nations

Keep rock and rolling to the world

Don't need no boost

Just turn me loose

And I sing

Rock and roll music to the world
