the road to rock roll

Joe Strummer

On the road to rock n roll
There s a lot of wreckage in the ravine
Some you recognise
Used to hang out on the scene
On the road to rock n roll

We ll be in the delta by and by
And if you don t believe in good and evil
You can tell the devil why
On the road to rock n roll
Come on everybody drift away
On the road to rock n roll
Where I learned to play
Rock n roll, rock n roll, rock n roll
What I learned to play

On the road to rock n roll
Everybody carries a good luck charm
Said to spook the highway wind
Blowing off old Parchman farm
On the road to rock n roll
They ll try to hook you by the eye
There s a mirror in your soul
You should turn it to the sky

On the road to rock n roll
The lonely sing a soulful song
Leave a little light in the wilderness
For somebody to come upon
On the road to rock n roll
With everybody deep in their dreams
And the snow is falling on the city
Ask the music what it means

On the road to rock n roll
Come on everybody drift away
On the road to rock n roll
Where I learned to play
Rock n roll, rock n roll
Rock n roll where I learned to play
On the road
