Rock N Roll Will Stand Lyrics
There was a little night spot
There was a little night spot
On the outskirts of town
On the outskirts of town
Where the beer was cheap
Where the beer was cheap
And the lights turned down
And the lights turned down
There was a boy on stage
There was a boy on stage
Who could sing a little bit
Who could sing a little bit
Doing his versions
Doing his versions
Of everybody's hits
Of everybody's hits
He told himself someday he'd have a
He told himself someday he'd have a
Millions fans
Millions fans
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand.
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand.
A Hollywood agent
A Hollywood agent
Finally caught the boy's act
Finally caught the boy's act
Gave him a contract
Gave him a contract
And slapped him on the back
And slapped him on the back
"On the dotted line
"On the dotted line
Please sign your name
Please sign your name
You're gonna get a star
You're gonna get a star
On the Walk of Fame
On the Walk of Fame
Soon you'll have the biggest record
Soon you'll have the biggest record
In the land,
In the land,
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand!
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand!
"We'll clean up your act
"We'll clean up your act
Take some more photos
Take some more photos
Everybody loves you
Everybody loves you
The night of the show.
The night of the show.
Annie's little baby has grown up
Annie's little baby has grown up
To be a man
To be a man
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand!
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand!
At the Hollywood club
At the Hollywood club
He gave his premier show
He gave his premier show
Some kids saw it from
Some kids saw it from
The very last row.
The very last row.
The businessman said
The businessman said
"This is where it's at!"
"This is where it's at!"
The kids said "Man,
The kids said "Man,
We can do better than that"
We can do better than that"
They got some guitars
They got some guitars
And went out to start a band
And went out to start a band
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand.
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand.
There was a little night spot
There was a little night spot
On the outskirts of town
On the outskirts of town
Another short drop
Another short drop
On the long way down
On the long way down
There's a Man on stage
There's a Man on stage
Who never knew when to quit
Who never knew when to quit
Tellin' everybody
Tellin' everybody
He almost had a hit
He almost had a hit
But now he's got a day job
But now he's got a day job
Working with his hands
Working with his hands
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand.
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand.
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand.
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand.
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand.
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand.
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand.
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand.
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand.
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand.
Annie's little baby has grown up
Annie's little baby has grown up
To be a man
To be a man
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand!
Everybody knows, Rock and Roll will stand!
