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

"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!"
