BOBBY
You said that our love won’t get old,
You said that our love can’t grow cold, oh no
But your lies I can’t respect,
Cuz our love is completely wrecked,
You sold me down the river for a pot of gold,
Gotta fortify my soul, cuz your heart’s made out of coal,
Gotta fortify my soul with rock and roll.
Yeah, I know I swore once you were like my twin,
But then you called in artillery, and now I’m diggin’ in,
Them battle lines are drawn,
My love for you’s all gone,
Livin' in sin between gin and violin,
Gotta fortify my soul, your curse is takin’ its toll,
Gotta fortify my soul with rock and roll.
Hit it!

BOBBY (Cont’d)
Oh no, you can’t kill my heart again,
You’ve lost your touch when you lost your only friend, mm-hmm,
You’ve scratched the back of this wiley tomcat,
And you’re where it was instead of where it’s at,
And my trouble with you has finally found an end,
Cuz I’ve fortified my soul; Gonna smoke a big ol' bowl,
Cuz I’ve fortified my soul with rock and roll.
I’ve fortified my soul with rock and roll.
I’ve fortified my soul with rock and roll.
