Don't try and take me to a disco, You'll never even get me out on the floor, In ten minutes I'll be late for the door, I like that old time rock and roll. Still like that old time rock and roll, That kind of music just soothes my soul, I reminisce about the days of old, With that old time rock and roll. Won't go and hear 'em play a tango, I'd rather hear some blues or funky old soul, There's only one sure way to get me to go, Start playin' old time rock and roll. Still like that old time rock and roll, That kind of music just soothes my soul, I reminisce about the days of old, With that old time rock and roll. Call me a relic call me what you will, Say I'm old fashioned say I'm over the hill. Today's music ain't got the same soul, I like that old time rock and roll. Still like that old time rock and roll, That kind of music just soothes my soul, I reminisce about the days of old, With that old time rock and roll. |
