I've always dreamed of goin' to places that they've been
I've always dreamed of makin' a splash
Baby, we were right up there with Holly and Valens
You know the Bopper made you laugh
But, when the Moon checked in to his Who room he said
"You gonna make room, Mama Cass?"
And she said, "Janis and Jimi have been patiently waiting
Patiently waiting, you're a gas!"
Too young to remember, too old to forget
I'm glad they came to remind us
Let's leave our regrets behind us
We still got rock and roll
Where would the Stones be without the Jones B
And don't you miss that John Bonham sound?
Baby, we got to keep on, livin' always livin'
Livin' with who we have now
We felt the loss of the likes of men like John Lennon
Dell Shannon, Duane Allman, Marc Bolan, Rick Nelson
Morrison and Orbison, Skynyrd and Croce, Elvis, little Randy from the Rhoads
Too young to remember, too old to forget, yea
I'm glad they came to remind us
Let's leave our regrets behind us
We still got rock and roll
They put their souls into the music
They put their hearts on that line, woa that fine line
So you could listen anytime
Too young to remember, too old to forget, yea
I'm glad they came to remind us
Let's leave our regrets behind us
We still got rock and roll
Do you remember the 8th of December
When the devil tried to put out the fire
Well, he surely succeeded in scoring some smoke now
But he only fanned the flames of desire
As for you rollers and you rockers and you strollers and you mockers
Don't forget about your yellow brick road
And all of the souls who have paved the way, now
They paved the way for rock and roll
Paved the way for rock and roll
They paved the way for rock and roll
