Rock of Ages by Jobriath Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1973

[Verse 1]
So what if a-wop-bop-a loo-bam boom didn't rhyme?
Billy Haley and the Comets drove me to the prom in time
A Little Richard goes a long long way
More than twenty long years to this day
Rock of ages roll away rock away roll away

[Chorus]
We were dancin' in the streets and shapin' our lives in school
When we were simply thirteen, God saved the queen in Liverpool
A mop top mersey goes a long long way
More than ten long years to this day
Rock of ages roll away rock away roll away

[Outro]
Three plays for a quarter is ancient history now
But the Stones roll away and rock that juke box till
Satisfaction goes a long long way
Much more than five long years to this day
Rock of ages roll away rock away roll away
A Little Richard goes a long long way
More than twenty long years to this day
Rock of ages roll away rock away roll away
