Rockin thru Time

 I prefer Rock and Roll and old school tunes

I'm wired that way, wont be changing soon

Give Me Buddy, Big Bopper too

Richie Valence and blue suede shoes


Brought up with wireless and Radio sound

Fats Domino and the thrill he found

From Blue Berry Hill  to New Orleans

Walking and talking Blue Monday He sings



I aint no country boy and I don't pray

But listening to Music is Gods own way

Of making life seem better for Me

With Johnny Cash and Brenda Lee


Born in Fifty Five my claim to fame

The year of the Juke Box, changing The game

One Silver coin put into a slot

Captured your mood Hitting the spot


Dance was crazy The jive and Swing

Chuck Berry Little Richard and Elvis was King


The Sixties soon followed with Harmony

Long Hair The stones and Ruby Tuesday

Dylan blew in with the wind

The Beatles helped the magic begin

Taking us on a mystery tour

Screaming Girls chase the fabulous four


Honkytonk Piano got raving reviews

with Georgie Fame and those Moody Blues

Protest Songs were popular 

But not a cool sound while driving the car


Roll till Your old Rock till you drop

Jive while alive singing Be Bop

 Dance to the rhythm, feel the base in your bones,

In this sonic landscape, we’ll make our home.


No one could say they were ever a fan

Soon that changed for a seventies band

Eight Track Stereo on a cross state drive

Sounding The Fashion for Playing Live


Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin

Helped the Seventies Settle in

No turning back for Cosmic Rock

Glam, Punk And the New Wave Shock


A New form of Elvis "Costello his name" 

Alison became his one true aim

A brand new sound from a label called stiff

Replacing Long locks, return of the Quiff


Roll till Your old Rock till you drop

Jive while alive singing Be Bop

 Dance to the rhythm, feel the base in your bones,

In this sonic landscape, we’ll make our home.


We have gone full circle but don't give a dam

Listening to Buddy Feelgood and Jam

Rocking out is the Master Plan


 New sounds are Hip to this generation

But truly for me not feeling any sensation

Give Me the Rhythmic rocking vibe

Give me the joy of Juke Box Jive.


Roll till Your old Rock till you drop

Jive while alive singing Be Bop

 Dance to the rhythm, feel the base in your bones,

In this sonic landscape, we’ll make our home.


With every verse, I find a piece of me,

Among the chords, I’m finally free

Be Bop a loo lah

Be Bop A loo Lah A lop Bam Boooo  Ahoooom
