Luther Russell - The Sound of Rock & Roll Lyrics

THE SOUND OF ROCK 'N ROLL

WELL WE'RE BACK TO THE BEGINNING
EVERYBODY LAUGHING, JOKING
AND SHE'S LEANING ON THE LAMP POST
IN A LEATHER JACKET, SMOKING
NOW IT'S BURNED-DOWN TO THE STUB
AND IT LOOKS JUST LIKE YOUR SOUL
AND SHE RUNS INTO THE CLUB
TOWARD THE SOUND OF ROCK 'N ROLL

NOW HER FACE BURNS WITH TEARS
AND HER EYELINER SMEARS
AND SHE'S ALL TORN APART
COZ THE DRUMMER BROKE HER HEART

BUT SHE'S BEEN SET FREE

NOW SHE'S STARING RIGHT THROUGH YOU
BUT YOU'RE TWO LEFT FEET ARE FROZEN
AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO
THOUGH KNOW THAT YOU'VE BEEN CHOSEN
AS THE PILLS FALL OUT HER PURSE
SHE BEGINS TO SLOWLY DANCE
YOU CAN SEE THE UNIVERSE
ALL WITHIN HER LITTLE GLANCE

NOW YOU'RE DRUNK, AND SHE'S HIGH
AND YOUR HEART WANTS TO DIE
AND THE MUSIC PLAYS SO LOUD
AS YOU FLOAT ON A CLOUD ABOVE THE CROWD

BUT YOU'VE BEEN SET FREE...
