Gimme That Rock 'n' Roll Songtext
von John Entwistle

You can keep your classical music
You can stuff your rhythm and blues
And you know what you can do with your Dixieland too
You can stick it any place you chose

Just give me that rock ′n' roll
All I want is that rock ′n' roll
Just give me that rock 'n′ roll
All I want is that rock ′n' roll
Take me back home and I′ll be up 'til seven
I don′t want to stay in Hell, take me back to Heaven
Back to rock 'n′ roll

Don't give me no high-class opera
Give me music with some drive
And I just can't take that old "Swan Lake"
I want to feel like I′m still alive


Just give me that rock ′n' roll
All I want is that rock ′n' roll
Just give me that rock ′n' roll
All I want is that rock ′n' roll
Take me back home and I'll be up ′til seven
I don′t want to stay in Hell, take me back to Heaven
Back to rock 'n′ roll

Don't play me no boogie woogie
I don′t like big bands that swing
All I want to hear is that rock 'n′ roll
I like that kind of thing

Just give me that rock 'n' roll
All I want is that rock ′n′ roll
Just give me that rock 'n′ roll
All I want is that rock 'n′ roll
Take me back home and I'll be up ′til seven
I don't want to stay in Hell, take me back to Heaven
Back to rock 'n′ roll
