Roosevelt Rock Band

The Roosevelt Rock Band consists of 4th and 5th graders, collaborating on a variety of instruments to perform in our community. Rock Band typically plays 4-5 performances throughout the year, both at school events as well as around Tampa. Our set lists vary as much as our students because our students nominate songs for the band to learn! Are you ready to ROCK?!

Congratulations New Roosevelt Rock Band Members


Seven Nation Army

I'm gonna fight 'em allA seven nation army couldn't hold me backThey're gonna rip it offTaking their time right behind my backAnd I'm talking to myself at nightBecause I can't forgetBack and forth through my mindBehind a microphoneAnd the message coming from my eyesSays leave it alone
Don't want to hear about itEvery single one's got a story to tellEveryone knows about itFrom the Queen of England to the southern bellAnd if I catch it coming back my wayI'm gonna serve it to youAnd that ain't what you want to hearBut that's what I'll doAnd the feeling coming from my bonesSays find a home
I'm going to WichitaFar from this opera for evermoreI'm gonna work the strawMake the sweat drip out of every poreAnd I'm screaming, and I'm screaming, and I'm screamingRight before the lordAll the words are gonna bleed from meAnd I will sing no moreAnd the stains coming from my bloodTell me go back home
