God gave rock 'n' roll to you
Gave rock 'n' roll to you
Put it in the soul of everyone
Do you know what you want
You don't know it for sure
You don't feel
That you can find a cure
And you're getting less
Than what you're looking for
You don't have money
Or a fancy car
Well you're tired of wishing
On a falling star
You gotta put your faith
In a loud guitar oh
God gave rock 'n' roll to you
Gave rock 'n' roll to you
Gave rock 'n' roll to everyone
God gave rock 'n' roll to you
Gave rock 'n' roll to you
Put it in the soul of everyone
Now listen
You wanna be a singer
Or play guitar
Man you gotta sweat
Or you won't get far
'Cause it's never too late
To work nine to five
You can take a stand
Or you can compromise
You can work real hard
Or just fantasize
But you don't start living
'til you realize
I gotta tell you
God gave rock 'n' roll to you
Gave rock 'n' roll to you
Gave rock 'n' roll to everyone
God gave rock 'n' roll to you
Gave rock 'n' roll to you
Put it in your souls
God gave rock 'n' roll to you
Gave rock 'n' roll to you
Gave rock 'n' roll to everyone
God gave rock 'n' roll to you
Gave rock 'n' roll to you
Saved rock 'n' roll for everyone
Saved rock 'n' roll
God gave rock 'n' roll to you
Gave rock 'n' roll to you
Put it in the soul of everyone
God gave rock 'n' roll to you
Gave rock 'n' roll to you
Put it in the soul
God gave rock 'n' roll to you
Gave rock 'n' roll to you
Put it in the soul
I know life sometimes
Can get tough
And I know life sometimes
Can be a drag
But people
We have been given a gift
We have been given a role
And that role's name is
Rock 'n' roll
God gave rock 'n' roll to you
Gave rock 'n' roll to you
Put it in the soul of everyone
